Had my first fall - broke a part and pride

As I was making a rolling CA stop, right on red, I dropped it on the right side when I stalled. The stall surprised me as I was still rolling.

Anyway I broke the assembly that holds both the right front peg and the rear brake. What is it called? Its not the peg, which I assume can be taken off the current assembly and put on a new one. Also is it better to replace with an aftermarket one then the OEM for my 2002 Daytona 955i?

Thanks in advance.
 
You broke the right rearset. Replace it with an OEM unit.
 
If it helps, I did the same thing in my driveway not too long ago. With spectators. Embarrassing but it builds character way better than a highspeed collision with a Volvo.

Someone with more Triumph experience can probably give a more detailed answer but if you need to get the bike running right away, best thing is to check local bike junkyard (I haven't lived in teh East Bay in 5 years so I'm not sure who is open. This should be the fastest and close to the cheapest.

The very cheapest and most likely to be successful is ebay but that takes time.

Then there is aftermarket. Probably more expensive and may be better than OEM but you have to shop around and compare. There are of course, aftermarket rearsets that will be way more expensive that OEM.

Then there is OEM, (original equipement) you should check on prices before doing anything so that you have a baseline but this is usually the most expensive. At the same time you know exactly what you are getting.
 
Yup, you can replace with aftermarket rearsets, but of course you'd have to buy the whole pair, not just because I doubt any vendor will sell you just one side, but also because why would you want to have mismatched rearsets? :laughing

Aftermarket rearsets tend to sacrifice comfort for their more purposeful ergonomic, FYI.
 
Sorry to hear about the drop but glad your ok. I hope you have no problems fixing your rearsets.:ride

Its called a "rearset" even though it's for the front rider? I'm going to take it apart later but I think I need only the bracket. Riding home afterwards was more difficult then I thought - I had nowhere to rest my right leg and had difficulties throwing my weight around. Good thing it was just a short local ride home.

Damn carelessness I tell you but thanks for everyone support and help.
 
FYI - actually a California stop is a PIT (Pursuit Intervention Technique) maneuver. PIT has several acronyms, that is just 1 of them but they all mean the same thing.
Called a California stop originally because it was 1st used by CHP in the San Diego District. They nicknamed the maneuver the California stop, then it was adopted by other law enforcement agencies around California. When agencies in other states started using it the name changed back to PIT maneuver.

But sorry to here about your spill.
if you had the clutch pulled in and it still stalled, try bleeding the clutch.

I find it odd that it's referred to as rearset even when it's stock, but yes.


IMO rearset means that it's behind the stock location, but the general use disagrees with me.

Yay for pointless exposition.

And incorrect exposition. For the past 40+ decades, a California stop (or a Hollywood stop) is is rolling through a stop sign without ever coming to a complete stop.

And you are correct. I was sitting here drafting my response trying to think of what the stock equipment is called because it ain't rearset.
 
Oi. Fine. If you must know, the OEM unit is dubbed a control plate.

And those people would be mistaken.
although words do take on new definitions through time like the word "fag"
for example. used to mean gay dudes, now means harley riders.

but never the less, california stop originally meant PIT maneuver.
people who didn't know any better started meaning it as incomplete stop.

people in all states do incomplete stops, nothing unique to California so the
name meaning incomplete stop doesn't even make sense.
If anything, an incomplete stop should be named a New York stop seeing as how the general
population of New York are the ones who are always in a hurry.

And you are still wrong. Even a simple Google search will help you out.

Troll much? I lived in Missouri and people called it a California roll or California stop when rolling through a stop sign. So apparently, time has changed so stop acting like a douche (not a vaginal cleaning unit).
 
All of you schoolgirls have just done a California Stop in this thread. :laughing
 
'nevertheless'

thought I'd join the snark party.....:twofinger

HEY..... wait a minute here... I ride a Harley and I am from New York... does this mean when I roll a stop sign I am a "fag doing New York?":teeth

Sorry I could not resist that one...and I think you are right about the PIT Manuever, multiple meanings..... and I think the PIT has a new name now too.
