Triumph Hyde rearsets


My buddy Steve came over with his new Norman Hyde rear-set controls. I was very interested to see how they were going to look as his bike is getting cooler and cooler every time he modifies. The instructions said the brake side was going to take an hour and the shift side far less. All I can say is that that was an understatement and that the fault was in the instructions being designed to scare the layman away. The text was minimal and the pictures xeroxed ala 1970's russian technology left much up to the imagination. I recommend at least two sets of eyes and plenty of consult with other owners of these rear sets. The end result is that they set the ride up in my humble opinion just the way this bike should look. The virdict is still out on how they effect the ride, I am waiting to hear back from Steve.
