Cycle Cat - Multi Adjustable Rearset Systems

dcc7-full

 

Cycle Cat CC series billet aluminum clutch covers are designed first for function. Lighter than stock steel and much stronger than carbon fibre, billet aluminum construction provides the maximum protection possible for clutch components, while minimizing unnecessary weight. HMC Racing subjected them to destruction testing before putting them on Steve Rapp's, Andy Meklau's, and Scott Russell's bikes during the 2001 season. Very simply, they outperformed cast and composite products in every respect.

 

Machined entirely from solid aluminum stock, CC series clutch covers are strong. Their open design provides enhanced ventilation to help keep the clutch running cool and clean. The DCC_____ is a full-open design, affording outstanding strength and protection of the clutch as well as maximum ventilation, cooling, and auralaccess to the what many consider one of the most definitive sounds of a Ducati. These clutch covers not only perform, but look good in the process. Some say these are the most beautiful things ever installed on a Ducati. To us, what's most beautiful about them, is the fact that they do their job brilliantly.

DTC-1/5 Billet Triple Clamp

 

The DTC-1 and DTC-5 top triple clamps are CNC-machined of solid billet 7075 aluminum. Designed to fit all Ducati 888s and 900 Supersport models, the DTC-1 is a specifically made to enable fitting superbike (53mm) forks in place of stock (50mm) forks. The DTC-5 is designed to fit standard, 50mm forks. The DTC-1 comes with the shim ne-cessary to properly adapt the stock lower triple clamp to the superbike forks.

 

Cycle Cat's signature trellis design combines remarkable strength and rigidity with minimal weight.

 

 

 

 

 

Info Coming Soon...

The BR series of multi-adjustable bar mounting systems make up one-half of a total rips. BR systems enables both bar height and angle adjustment through a simple, strong, and beautifully-executed design. The systems consist of two CNC-machined billet risers, into which are fitted specially-machined stainless steel sleeves, and a machined set of bars, taper-bored internally for strength and drilled for stock control mounting.

 

Proper bar angle is increasingly considered to be a critical adjustment for optimizing weight distribution on the wrists. With the bars set properly, there is less fatigue, greater sensitivity, and reduced potential for injury.

 

Bar angle adjustment on the BR systems is simple, precise, and secure, and generally does not require the removal of switches or controls. BR series bar mounting systems are designed to exploit every available millimeter of adjustment potential for each application. They are typically limited only by constraints created by the design of the motorcycle.

how do they work? On some models, maximum adjustment can only be achieved through lengthening clutch and/or throttle cables. Cycle Cat makes this easy, and includes all suggested cable modifications with the kit. Its all in the box.

IMPORTANT

All Ducatis with coffin-style (rectangular box-type) brake/clutch reservoirs will also require Cycle Cat's master cylinder spacer kit. This kit is Cycle Cat part number PKHS031-02A, MSRP $40.00 when purchased alone, MSRP $20 when purchased with a bar mounting system. This kit provides extra clearance for the reservoirs which, otherwise, conflict with the riser. Kit contains two adapaters and throttle advance spacer (only one kit is required per bike).

 

NOTES:

1. In designing bar mounting/positioning systems, we work within the parameters of the space and clearances available between fairing, tank, mirrors, frame components, and often, the positioning restrictions resulting from cable and hose lengths. In cases where, as a result of short stock hydraulic hoses, adjustment is severely restricted, Cycle Cat systems include replacement hose kits as required. All such hose kits are made for Cycle Cat by Spiegler, and include braided stainless steel lines.

Where clutch and/or throttle cables require lengthening for full range of adjustment, the required cables are either included in the kit, or where they cannot be included, a prepaid coupon and mailer are included, making it quick and easy to have your stock cables rebuilt and extended. Click here for more about our cable extension deal. Regardless of whether hoses, cables, or both are required for optimum performance of your bar mounting system, you can be sure that whatever it is you will need, it's in the box you'll receive.

To learn more about exactly what is required for and comes with a specific bar mounting system, click on the product number in the table above.

Apart from the replacement of hydraulic lines or cables where deemed necessary, Cycle Cat bar mounting systems are designed and manufactured to exploit as much adjustability as is permitted by the motorcycle design, without requiring permanent modification to the motorcycle. We attempt to leave nothing on the table. Thus, in some cases, at their most extreme settings BR series systems will cause interference between bar-mounted controls and the fairing or mirrors. If the user desires the most extreme settings without interference, achieving clearance is simply a matter of backing off from the maximum to preference.

 

2. All BR series systems include replacement reservoir brackets and reservoir tubing for relocation of the brake and clutch reservoirs (where applicable), optimizing their positioning.

 

* The years indicated are those which Cycle Cat has tested. Applicability of the products probably extends to other model years, but as of the date of this posting, Cycle Cat has not had the opportunity to test bikes of model years other than those indicated.

**The DTC8 is recommended for the DBR13 for an aesthetcis purpose only.

 

ABOUT RISE AND BAR HEIGHT

Cycle Cat uses two terms, "rise" and "bar height" to describe the performance of its bar mounting systems. The two are not the same, and it is helpful to understand the difference between them.

Rise is measured as the distance between the top surface of the bar riser's fork tube clamp and the middle of the handlebar, at its mounting point. Rise is a fixed measurement which defines the bar riser itself, and does not change regardless of the location of the bar riser on the fork tube or the angle of adjustment of the bar. The "rise" specification is used for differentiating among specific bar risers. As a result of adjustability in the positioning of the bar riser itself, as well as adjustment of bar angle, bar rise contributes to, but does not equate directly with bar height adjustment. Bar height is the actual distance to the ground from the center of the end of the bar.

Bar height adjustment is the actual range of change in bar height possible, on a specific motorcycle, with the specific riser provided. Because it is meaningless to most people to know the distance of the bar to the ground, bar height adjustment is expressed as a comparison to stock bar height.

Thus the height adjustment measurement considers rise, position of the riser on the fork tube, and bar angle adjustment, all of which affect the final position of the bar and grip. As an example, if on a particular motorcycle, the stock bar height measured 34" from the ground, and a specific bar mounting system on that motorcycle provided a bar height ranging from 33" to 35 1/2" from the gound, the bar height adjustment range would be represented as -1.0" to + 1.5". This means that the particular bar mounting system provides a range of bar height adjustment of from 1.0" below stock to 1.5" above stock.

DRS21

DRS21/31 Rearset Systems

The Patented, Multi-Adjustable Rearset Syetem: DRS21/31 Rearset Systems

The DRS21 and DRS31 are a solid, billet aluminum rearsets made for Ducati 749 and 999 models.

Great pains have been taken in the design of this system, to ensure full range of adjustability and provide proper clearance for all fittings. The result is an extraordinary product, complete with levers, which provides a range of adjustment that is far in excess of what anyone will ever use.

 

The DRS21 system is conventional shift. The DRS31 is GP (reverse) shifting.

As with all Cycle Cat rearset systems, the design and machining has been done thoroughly and with great attention to detail, so that the system bolts up easily, critical stock parts are reused, and nothing additional remains to purchased, customized, or modified by the user. Even the brake lever, which must be designed to accommodate a fairing which would interfere with a typical, straight lever, has been carved into a smooth flowing element of extraordinary rigidity and strength. And as might be expected, the stock brake master cylinder fits right in, and total system can be installed and made ready to ride in minutes.

The DRS21 and DRS31 multi-adjustable rearset systems feature the footpeg and toe piece adjustability common to all Cycle Cat rearset systems, and adjustable levers. Anodized aluminum heel guards are included, as are toe rubbers for the adjustable toe pieces. Light, strong, and the most adjustable system you can buy for your Ducati, the DRS21 and 31 not only deliver the ability to totally dial in the fit of your ride, but look beautiful in the process.

 

 

DRS-21 Range of Adjustment

 

Each colored dot represents a possible position of the DRS-21 footpeg. There are 108 possible locations for the footpeg, all quickly and easily achieved.

 

While every footpeg position indicated can be used, and there is clearance for positioning of the peg in every case, at the extremes, the position-ing can be less practical due to obstructions to the foot or adjustment of the levers. Thus, the dots are color-coded to represent the practicality of use of the various footpeg positions.

 

The green dots are easily used peg positions. The yellow should be useable but may not be, in all cases, for all riders. The red dots are likely to be difficult, though not impossible, to employ.

DRS02

The DRS2 is a solid, billet aluminum rearset made for Ducati 750 and 900 SS models, and which makes up one-half of a total rips kit, the most complete product available for optimizing rider position and motorcycle ergonomics. Used alone or together with the Cycle Cat BR series multi-adjustable bar mounting system, the DRS2 provides a range of adjustment limited only by the motorcycle itself. Typically, the range of adjustment is far in excess of what anyone will ever use.

 

As with all Cycle Cat rearset systems, the design and machining has been done thoroughly and with great attention to detail, so that the system bolts up easily, critical stock parts are reused, and nothing additional remains to purchased, customized, or modified by the user.

 

The total system can be installed and made ready to ride in minutes. The DRS2 multi-adjustable rearset system features the footpeg and toe piece, and lever adjustability common to all Cycle Cat Rips rearset systems. Light, strong, and the most adjustable system you can buy for your Ducati, the DRS2 not only delivers the ability to totally dial in the fit of your ride, but looks beautiful in the process.

 

The DRS41 kit, which is designed for Ducati 888 models, is very similar in form and function, to the DRS2. The image above fairly represents the appearance and mounting of the DRS41.

DRS-2 Range of Adjustment

 

To the left is a graphic representation of the range of adjustment possible with the DRS-2. The background image is the stock rearset. The red circle high-lights the stock position of the footpeg.

 

Each colored dot represents a possible position of the DRS-2 footpeg. There are 108 possible locations for the footpeg, all quickly and easily achieved.

 

While every footpeg position indicated can be used, and there is clearance for positioning of the peg in every case, at the extremes, the position-ing can be less practical due to obstructions to the foot or adjustment of the levers. Thus, the dots are color-coded to represent the practicality of use of the various footpeg positions.

 

The green dots are easily used peg positions. The yellow should be useable but may not be, in all cases, for all riders. The orange/red dots are likely to be difficult, though not impossible, to employ.

 

DRS-2 Design Intent

 

As indicated, the footpeg can be raised a maximum of 3.8", lowered a maximum of 2.1", moved backward a maximum of .9", or forward a maximum of 2.0", from the stock footpeg position.

 

The DRS-2 system is designed to fine-tune the footpeg and control positions for optimal handling and performance on an aggressive, competition sport bike. As such, the geometry of the system provides a 64:36 up:down adjustment ratio, weighting the system toward more aggressive, competitive positionings, while simultaneously providing substantial adjustment range toward open, relaxed, less aggressive settings, for taller riders and those wishing less angle in the knees. In determining the amount of downward adjustment to provide, designers also considered minimal reduction of lean angle to be an important objective, as well as avoidance of interference with fairings, and maintenance of proper linkage geometries.

 

Ultimately, it was our objective with the DRS-2 to create a versatile means for dialing-in the fit of the foot position and controls, to accommodate any style of riding desired, and to take advantage of every inch of adjustment practical. The DRS-2 meets and exceeds our objectives, and, we believe, succeeds in providing virtually any rider with an incompar-able, easily-achieved, personalized riding position, for any kind of ride.
