THEY ARE NOT THE SAME !!!!!

I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE PROTEK REAR SETS, HAD THEM POWDER-COATED AND WENT TO INSTALL THEM
AND THEY DO NOT BOLT UP...

THE LEFT SIDE, THE MIDDLE MOUNTING SCREW IS A 1/16" OFF....

THE RIGHT SIDE, THEY LOWER PORTION OF THE REARSETS MOUNT BUT THE UPPPER PORTION WILL NOT
MOUNT WITHOUT RUBBING SEVERELY ON YOUR REAR COWL---ALSO, THE REAR BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER
IS TILTED SO SEVERELY THAT IT CRIMPS THE HOSE, RENDERING THE BRAKES USELESS...  FINALLY,
THE BRAKE PEDAL IS SO HORIZONTAL THAT YOU CAN'T BEND YOUR ANKLE TO APPLY THE BRAKES...

THE BIKE IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT IN ALMOST EVERY ASPECT.... THE FRAME, EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKS THE
SAME, IT IS LOWER IN STATURE THAN THE 99-07....

I used a set of Gilles rearsets for a 07 they fit fine. I also know alot of people using Strato and Vortex  for 07's with out any issues. Maybe the Proteks were the wrong part maybe for a GSXR1000 or somthing....

Maybe they nuked them to long in the oven if they didn't send the wrong ones.

Something isn't right because the pre-07 rearsets fit on the 08 just fine...
