Tarozzi rearsets for the love of god

Cam, yours is factory (Tarozzi) and Carlo's is aftermarket (Tarozzi).
Factory wins.
 
AFAIK there are two basic types- foot peg stationary & foot peg rotates. Stationary peg type has perpendicular hole drilled on outer end to allow tightening, rotating type has through bolt. You have rotating peg type. Bearing this possibility in mind, what's binding? The peg rotates w/ lever.
 
I tried a homemade proof of concept. With a washer just on the peg end it didn?t work but with a bigger washer both ends it does, the way it was tightening was pulling the bolt out of alignment. Agree cam a brass sleeve would be better but needs must until someone can suggest a local shop to do it.
 
Full machine shop under my house Carlo, mill lathe drill press you?re welcome to use any time, plus I have a box full of foot peg stuff. I?m home all day Saturday and you need to sort it so you can make the bbq on sunday

Thanks Marty very generous.

Unfortunately, apart from knowing nothing about lathes and drill presses I am also celebrating the wife?s birthday and our anniversary this weekend so I?m out of action!

I would like to get it sorted though but I guess I?ll have to bodge it up for now until someone can educate me on what to do!!

 
I?ve just bought the set off gert for a project bike. Hopefully, I won?t have any problems, but have suffered a few binding issues with an original set on one of my F500s. I think I stuck a washer between the foot peg and the gear lever.

Women are strange creatures. They don't like getting older, but they get pissed off if you forget birthdays or anniversaries.
Tell her it can't be her birthday because she doesn't look a day older than when you married her.

:D Oh yeah, and she'll think you're up to no good.

If your pegs are adjustable via pins, be careful, the pins only locate one way, if the wrong way around they will tighten up on an angle and bind no mater what .............. Guilty as charged  :-[
 
Thick end of pin in the slot on the peg right? Seems most secure like that.

I need to get them sorted as per Cams advice as my solution worked but not ideal.
 
There appears to be some apples and oranges content here. I think Carlos issue was completely different from mine. Plus there appear to be a few completely different types of rearsets available. The shape and machining was definitely wrong on my mounting plates, whoever made them must have been pissed off his head or couldn't see his nose in front of his face. Mine would never have worked right without extensive major mods

Drawing is the Same as mine. My pins have a step, not centred. So if you put the pins in arse about, then tighten the locking ring, the arm and the lever go skewwiff. The whole shebang won?t work like that.

I think the sleeve from 12 to 10mm is your best option though, that way everything should be okay, as long as you use 10mm washers either side of the backing plates to hold the sleeves in place.
