I still have the blue plastics man. You may remember the spill she took :D . I bondo'd up the gouges and scrapes on the old plastics and painted them up. The OL likes the blue better but it's now like having two bikes in one (sorta). I can change the plastics in about a half hour and then she's ready for me to ride (you can take that any way you want :D).
Oh! Thanks for the comps all. I'm real happy with the "RAT".

The rearsets are from Crossroads. I checked out the Banke and these seem to fit the look and positioning much better.
The rearsets took about an hour a side to install. The toughest part was getting the old peg yokes off the bike (included in total time of ~2 hrs).
The rear brake master cyl. was a bit of a pain too. The output had to be flipped around and the line reshaped but that was not too bad just messy.

Thanks Kenny, I'll look into those, I think they make them for S1's also but I needed to see them on a bike.
