picking up a st90 skyteam but i got some ??????

so i plan on picking up fatcaaat's skyteam very soon but there are a few things about the bike that i would like to address. as some of you know he did a great job with his, but the foot peg placement on the ZB rer eplicas/real ZB is a little awkward for me. i would like more of a crotch rocket feel/stance. but i am afraid about the rear brake lever(he switched to disc rear brakes) and also how does the shifter fit with new linkage???? i am very excited to pick up the bike hopefully so please let me know.

a few brainstorm ideas i came up with are to take stunt pegs and actually drill holes and bolt them o the frame but then what about shift linkage and rear brake foot lever.

another idea was that maybe a new handle bar setup, like the clamp on ones from big street bikes.

whats everyone take on this, any info that i can use? also were can i find a rear seat cowl?

Re: picking up a st90 skyteam but i got some ??????

pegs mounted on the frame wouldn't be a good idea as once you drop the bike, you might bend the frame. You can order rearsets which mount in two places that is stronger and can take a lowside and damage only to the pegs instead of the frame. Do it right and spend the money if you just have to have rearsets. The rearsets will have provisions to mount a linkage to the shift lever and rear disc brake master cylinder.

As for the bar setup and seat cowl, the other PM members will have that info.
