RSV4 | Bonamici Rearsets | Install

[@robertbryant1845]

Great to see you back, I was wondering why you disappeared for so long, hopefully more content to follow soon.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

I had a severe back injury that I’m still dealing with. But I’m excited to start the new mods. I have a lot planned. Triple clamp and clip ons, Samco radiator hoses and coolant flush, 520 chain and sprocket conversion, lighter sprocket carrier, forged wheels, Brembo rotors, front fork cartridges, evap removal and a lot more. This bike is about to exceed $40k lol ✌️

[@robertbryant1845]

@@ALFAVITAGA hopefully your back injury heals quickly, sending positive vibes attcha. Look forward to seeing the mods.. I’m still cruising on the RS660 and slowly modding that

Another great video, THANK YOU. Because of this video I went with the same rearsets and your step by step installation made it really easy. One thing though, the top wing on the right side keeps getting caught on my Sidi Rex boots which has made me cause Yellow Flag a few times on the track. After finding out I'm not the only one I have reached out to Bonamici and they are redesigning that piece. Thank you again.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@KavehFanian Thank you! You’re not the first to hear this from about the boots. But I never had this issue with my Dainese Axial D1s ✌️

[@ExitOnTheInside]

thanks for this , the bonamicis are now off my shortlist . . . . seems like a headache! appreciate the time taken to film , narrate & edit

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Thank you! Film, narrate and edit was more difficult than the install itself lol. But the install is not that difficult. At least not more difficult than any other rearset manufacturer.

[@stephenmoody5695]

Great rear sets and the quality is the best out there

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@stephenmoody5695 I agree!

It's been a while. Welcome back !

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Good to be back 💪✌️

[@lamlangthien3882]

welcome back! glad to see your video again

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Thank you! ✌️

[@nikkotulloch9497]

Lightech R gp is the route I went. No regrets.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Those were actually my first consideration. Because they look fancy. But when I checked them in person they didn’t click for me. All rearsets will do the job. It’s mostly preference and what works best for each.

[@GenghisKhan311]

I have them on my bmw definitely the best. Just pricey

[@user-challbad]

nice video bro welcome back 💪

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Thank you bro 💪✌️

[@demmyk]

That was amazing! When you are done filming and editing the bike mods, make a tutorial on how to create great videos! 🙈🙊

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Thank you! Maybe I’ll do that in the future, if my channel grows more. 👌

[@EvendimataE]

factory pegs fold, while many after market pegs are fixed. i think fixed are better since they can somewhat add protection to the engine side covers

[@ALFAVITAGA]

For street riding folding pegs are usually better as they can fold up if the boot is accidentally caught on the peg while repositioning your foot after a traffic light stop. But in racing it is important that the peg is always on the same position. Depending on the speed the non folding peg could assist as a slider but on higher speed it could be counterproductive as it can make the bike flip and total it. It’s always a hit and miss.

[@bao_motor]

Hope you will do the Xtrenta aerodynamic kits like underwing , tail wing , faring,....

[@ALFAVITAGA]

If I can find that kit, I’m doing that today lol ✌️

[@GenghisKhan311]

​@@ALFAVITAGAlet us know if you find it. I've been searching with no luck

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@GenghisKhan311 Currently there is no manufacturer that makes Xtrenta replica street fairings. I spoke to a manufacturer that makes carbon street fairing for the RSV4 and I expressed my interest in the Xtrenta street fairings. He told me it’s a challenge and there are certain requirements that must be met for them to make them. Which tells me we wont see them in the market any time soon. At this time I have only found one manufacturer that makes Xtrenta track fairings. I was thinking of purchasing the track Xtrenta fairings and modifying them to fit the headlight. But I can’t confirm it will work and I can’t confirm it will clear the street radiator overflow. Too many variables to spent $1000 on to find out that it wont work. But who knows.. maybe I’ll pull the plug on them at some point and find out.

[@drinkenbus6813]

great video! but just one thing, 7:28 that bolt needs to face the other way otherwise you will not be able to adjust the distance.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@drinkenbus6813 It’s funny that you mentioned this because the instructions say to install it as I do on the video. But then when I installed the reasets on the bike and wanted to adjust the brake lever, I quickly realized that it’s better if I rotate it. ✌️

[@EagleF3F]

First 15 mins of the video I was thinking, use loctite .. :D I put the bonamici rearsets on a couple months ago.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Definitely use loctite lol. I used after recording the video ✌️

[@Luca-jx7fv]

correct! very important so as not to lose the bolts👍

[@Luca-jx7fv]

Thanks for the video ✌

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@Luca-jx7fv Thank you for the well designed rearsets ✌️

[@JohnnyXie527]

Great video man, for some reasons my gear rod is chrome vs yours is black. I guess my is for rs660?

[@ALFAVITAGA]

I was anticipating this comment. The truth is that the rod comes in chrome and not black. Through the magic of my dealer, they were able to get me a black rod per my request from Bonamici. I wanted to mention this in the video but I had to edit out a lot of footage, because it was becoming to long as it is.

[@nikkotulloch9497]

Put a lock washer behind the bolts mounted to the frame on top and bottom. You will thank me later. It will bump the shift rod out with perfect clearance.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

That was my thought initially. But it seems to work perfect as it is. I may not need the washer after all. ✌️

[@GenghisKhan311]

I bought the ones without brake switch on accident 😢 guess I'll just use the sato racing one i have.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

👌

[@srbpride]

Love mine but rear brake light won't work . Can't figure it out.

[@ALFAVITAGA]

Maybe you have the race version that does not have an insert for the rear brake light.

[@meghavarshini01]

May I know what mount ur using in the passenger footpegs

[@ALFAVITAGA]

I ordered some clamp brackets and I modified them with a drill and angle grinder to create the correct angle for it. Plus some spacers and longer bolts. It a little more involved so for that reason I’m planing to make a video how go do the same setup.

[@senor-fa-von-dia]

How are you finding the rearsets?

[@ALFAVITAGA]

@@senor-fa-von-dia I love them! I did a lot of research before I went with Bonamici and it paid off. I had Spider rearsets on my RS660 which I also love and is my first choice for the RS660. But the pegs are a bit short and very race oriented and it took some effort to get used of them. With the Bonamici on my RSV4, the transition from the stock rearsets was very smooth. Good length pegs, and smooth operation.
