[Lily]

Just got myself some nice shiny rearsets in the post (Cheers Dave ).

Now, I can cope with the basic stuff on my bike and reckon I should be able to fit these if someone can tell me where all the bits go??

I appear to have five pieces, is it gonna be obvious??

Certainly should be easy enough for you to do it yourself Lily, but if not I can always post pics of either my Harris rearsets of the DP ones, both are fitted to bikes so all should become clear.

I am kinda hoping I can talk nicely to someone with more skill than myself to get them fitted, but will ahev to wait and see

You shouldn't have any problems Lil. If you can bake a yummy chocolate cake you can fit rear-sets

One thing to watch if they are 2nd hand is the 6mm rose joint bearings, make sure they move freely. Earlier this year at Castle Combe with a few of the Hants members of the DSC as spectators I suffered the embaresment of stalling the bike on the grid as the lights changed as what I thought was first turned out to be 2nd, problem was traced to a seized rose joint making 1st gear very hard to select, obviously if your going to use a reverse pattern shift this will not be a problem.

From what I recall when I fitted mine, theres a circlip somewhere so you need to get your hands on some circlip pliers.
