There is nothing more fun than to hang out of your bike, stick that knee out and carve that turn, that is until you can go no further because your footpeg and shifter are being shaved by the road. This is particularly a "drag" on track day.
I ride a 2002 M2 and I obviously need rear sets. Unfortunately, due to the fact that they don't make them anymore, the ones i find are about $500 or more.
Can you guys help me out? I don't mind previously owned.

i bought these on ebay, like 55 bucks. they make a noticeable difference, an inch up and back, but i still drag things. you have to cut that brake rod as short as possible to get the brake lever at a decent angle, but install is simple, they do make a difference, and quality is good. the seller makes these along with some other machined aluminum parts, seller is col.time or something. i like them.

M2blackdragon I made mine with a $10 piece of 3/8" aluminum flatstock, an electric drill, and an anglegrinder. I have trouble posting pictures here but I'll email them to you. Took me all evening but saved me $490
