LighTech FTRYA016R Rearset Kit R-Version Yamaha YZF-R1/R1M RN32 RN49 RN65 (2015-2026)

When you spend hours tucked behind the screen of a Yamaha YZF-R1 or R1M — whether carving mountain passes or pushing the limits on a track day — the position your rearsets lock you into shapes everything. The LighTech FTRYA016R R-Version is engineered so that comfort and control work together, not against each other. Multiple adjustment positions let you dial in your exact riding posture, while ball-bearing shift and brake levers eliminate any vagueness underfoot, session after session.

Key Features

• CNC-machined from a single billet of Ergal 7075-T6 aluminium for outstanding rigidity with minimal weight
• Up to three ball bearings per lever for smooth, play-free actuation even under sustained high-load conditions
• Multiple height and setback positions so you can fine-tune foot placement to match your riding style and physique
• Folding silver footpegs and toepegs reduce crash damage risk and aid cornering clearance
• Carbon heel guards deliver ergonomic support and protect the assembly from abrasion
• Titanium fasteners throughout — featherlight and corrosion-resistant where it matters most
• Red anodised footpeg carriers give the R-Version its distinctive racing aesthetic on or off the circuit

Built Around the Rider

The geometry of a rearset kit is rarely appreciated until it is wrong. LighTech's R-Version addresses this directly: the combination of adjustable positions and ball-bearing lever pivots means every rider — tall or compact, road-focused or track-obsessed — can find a stance that remains fatigue-free across a full day's riding. Carbon heel guards wrap the foot naturally, reducing vibration transfer and keeping control surfaces exactly where your boots expect them.

Race-Grade Construction for Road and Track

Ergal 7075-T6 is the same alloy grade used in aerospace and competition applications — stiffer and stronger than standard 6061 series aluminium. Every bracket, lever arm and pivot on the FTRYA016R is machined from solid billet rather than cast, so the structure resists flex under the hardest braking and the sharpest direction changes. Titanium fasteners replace steel equivalents throughout, saving grams without compromising clamping integrity. All individual components are available as separate spare parts, making long-term ownership straightforward and cost-effective.

Compatibility and System Expansion

The FTRYA016R is fully compatible with the LighTech UP&DOWN support bracket RFTR244, allowing further position refinement for riders who want even greater setup flexibility. Complete mounting hardware is included, so fitment is a direct, no-fabrication installation on all covered models.
