Off-topic but Clubman Racing had the nicest steering damper bracket with a nice curve to it (unlike the ugly angle-iron version others offer).

Speaking of rear-sets, Norton Nouveau (Robert) had the most beautiful set but he passed away as well.

I was thinking of making some rear sets but maybe I won't.
It seems to bring on passing away!

I think you will be fine, and I bet the rearsets will be awesome. Just keep away from the cows.

have you considered Norvil-style flat Z plates and levers, as they are available off the shelf?

The problem with making rearsets as you all may agree is that each person wanting rearsets wants them in the position that suits them. If I could make custom adjustable rearsets and brake & gear levers to suit each individual owner then I would be retired by now. However, them are many nice examples out there out what some owners have made for themselves, so might be worth taking a look online and seeing what owners have fitted.

Like this. Needs a reliable electric start though.

I have Tarrozzi adjustables on my Triton, so nice.
