I’m afraid 😱 one day I’m going to snip one of my fingers. 😂 Nah, never that. Im not sure which is more satisfying, successfully finishing the install or the video. 🤣
Is there a mistake? If you look at the nut to activate the brake and its bolt (at 7:48 with the blue loctite dripping down), they are both on top of the metal wedge. In the Gilles manual in diagram 4 and 5, they are both on top. But your video (11:26) shows the nut below the wedge like how you would fasten a regular bolt. Also, the 2021 Panigale V4S brake side (brake switch) is different. Just FYI. Otherwise, great video.
I’m so glad you chose the rearset that’s easier to install. At least from the looks of it. No cursing was involved during the install. 🥰 Plus, I knew you had your heart set on Gilles the moment you opened the box. 😊
As always, great video from you. Fellow SF V4s owner here from the UK. I found using a hairdryer to warm up the brake switch tabs helps get them out, but then everythings always cold in the UK! :)
Hey Gavin great tip for removing the rear break sensor. During this entire install that’s the only thing that took a little finesse. thank you for watching. Subscribe and hit that Thumbs Up to help the channel grow.
Where did you find the torque specs? My dealer would not provide them to me and I'm finding A LOT of loose bolts and a brand new bike with 3 miles on it. It's making me very apprehensive to ride it without being able to confirm that bolts are properly tightened. I just want to find basic stuff like rearsets, fork pinch bolts, axles, etc.

All I have to say for this one is that “Nike” needs to cut me a check for that free promo. Lol The MUE2s are freaking awesome and perfect for anyone looking for versatility. Link in bio!
Brother man Mike. When do you even have time for yourself?!? You are one busy man. We all benefit regardless. Been enjoying all your uploads on both channels. 👊🏽
Can you clarify that the kit from Motovationusa includes the carbon heal guards? The video seems to show the billet ones. Bellismoto has them with the billet guards for about $100 less. Motovationusa’s website says they come with the carbon ones but your video shows aluminum.
Unfortunately Gilles does not offer the MUE2 for the 2023 ZX-10R. The do offer the FXR and we currently have one set in stock. Link here: www.motovationusa.com/fxr-adjustable-rearsets-by-gilles-tooling-kawasaki-zx-10r-FXR-K07-B Another option that we have had really good luck with is the Rearset from Bonamici Racing and we currently have 2 sets in stock. I will link it here: www.motovationusa.com/adjustable-rearsets-by-bonamici-kawasaki-zx10r-k021
Which one would you recommend? Im planning to change my rearsets as current one start scraping at around 53-54 deg lean angle. Can i go higher upto 60 using gilles?

Nice parts! Gilles also make black anodized block off plates if you want to remove the Streetfighter wings.
Thanks for the headsup. We do carry the entire Gilles Tooling product line on the motovationusa site.

The MUE2s were the clear winner once I saw the included heel guard. 😬

Great video, thanks for sharing!!
I would’ve chosen this one too bud. Bless you for your patience 😅
Picking the Gilles MUE2s was a no brainer. This job wasn’t too bad. 🙂
🙏❤️ Love from Scotland ❤️🙏
Thank you for the video. Is the peg as long as the stock?
I'll check and measure the two when I get a chance. Subscribe and stay tuned.

I need to correct you on 2:03 you wrote made in Germany....but the company is from Luxemburg....otherwise nice video
Not made in Germany!! Is a product of Luxemburg!!
You are correct. Gilles is located in Luxemburg. Great catch! 🤙
Faut arrêter sérieux avec leur prix complètement délirant ça reste juste de l'aluminium taillé dans la masse rien ne justifie le prix...
