Anybody got an opinion on which rearsets are the best for adjustment, price and quality? I'm in the market for a set after destroying another set of boots, I can't get out of the habit of grinding the boot on the the tarmac not the slider. I've now ruined a pair of dainese sepangs and age-ins and well on the way with a pair of axo comp pros.

You sure that you don't just need to change the position of your feet when cornering mate?:o

Try a set of ape hangers and stirups!

I use the Harris multi adjustable ones, excellent quality and easy to get spares for.

Triffic quality and finish but pricey. Tecmo to a copy I believe in various colours £250ish.

I'm with Skidlids on the Harris approach.

Two height adjustments on the frame section and then a detachable/replaceable eccentric that rotates through 360 degs for peg positioning. Various pegs available too.

Nigel I have Harris rear sets, set at the highest setting, still managed to ground the toe away. Changed the position I set my feet now. If you have any pic's of yourself, take a look at you feet, I thought mine were set with just a small amount off the peg but when I looked at a pic of myself, found that over half of my foot was off the peg.

Not sure if they do them for a Duke, but Gilles rearsets are top class for quality and adjustability and looks - bit pricey though.

But as said previously, if your grinding your boots away, then probably feet position needs changing.
