I'm looking for the rearsets/shifter below, but I don't know who makes it. I know it was used on some of the old pro thunder X1 bikes, but I've seen some older photos of some posters bikes(spent a few hours looking through the archives, but couldn't identify the brand) so I'm hoping someone knows who makes them.

You can also get one from Shane Sorenson at chansikle.com for a bit less dough.

Yes, as Rich said they are Storz rearsets...

Here's a pic on an S1 I believe:

Wow! You guys are good! I didn't expect an answer so quickly.

In any case, this question might be better suited for another post, but I'll try here first.

I know Buell had some race only parts that were available through Henry Douga for people with race licenses, one of the them being the X1 rearsets. However, I know crossroads made some of the early Buell Pro Series rear sets for the S1 lightnings.

A poster here by the name o Henrik mentioned that the X1 rear race sets weren't so much if a "rear" set as they were a raised set in relation to stock, and then I found this pic of an older pro thunder X1.





Naturally I assumed that these were the Buell racing rear sets for the X1.

If anyone knows otherwise, or if this question should be posted in the racing section, please let me know.

Thanks.

These are my 'rear'sets from the Buell race dept. The Storz shifters work perfectly with them.







The old crossroads X1 rearsets used the passenger mounting brackets on the frame and a shift linkage such as this (these now sold by AmericanSportbike)
