LighTech Rearset FTRSU004/W Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023) – Ergal 7075-T6 Aluminium

When rider control and structural confidence matter most, the LighTech FTRSU004/W rearset delivers on every count for the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 from 2017 through 2023. Machined from a solid billet of Ergal 7075-T6 aluminium — the same high-tensile alloy used in motorsport chassis components — this system combines exceptional rigidity with a direct, communicative feel whether you are threading traffic or chasing lap times.

Key Features

• CNC-machined from a single billet of Ergal 7075-T6 aluminium for maximum rigidity and minimal flex under hard braking and cornering loads
• Up to three precision ball bearings per lever eliminate play and deliver precise, consistent gear-change and brake actuation
• Footpeg height and setback are fully adjustable across multiple positions, allowing a tailored riding posture for road, trackday or circuit use
• Silver anodised footpegs and toe pegs included as standard, with silver footpeg carriers fitted
• Wide range of optional accessories and individual replacement components available separately, protecting your long-term investment
• Compatible with optional footpeg brackets, enabling further position customisation
• Complete fitting kit included — no hunting for hardware before installation

Precision Engineering for Road and Track

The FTRSU004/W is built around the philosophy that every input from the rider's foot should reach the machine without loss or ambiguity. The multi-bearing lever pivots remove the slop that accumulates in conventional bushings over time, so the shift action and rear brake feel remain crisp ride after ride. The Ergal 7075-T6 billet construction means the carriers and levers handle the sustained stress of track use without the fatigue that can compromise cast or folded aluminium parts.

Position adjustability is a genuine highlight: both height and setback can be altered across multiple indexed settings without specialist tooling. Whether you prefer an upright touring stance on a Sunday road ride or an aggressive, tucked position for circuit work, the rearset accommodates the change in minutes. Every component that wears or is at risk of impact damage is individually available from LighTech, so a trackday tip-over need not mean replacing the entire assembly.

Application and Riding Style

The FTRSU004/W suits three distinct rider profiles: road riders with performance aspirations who want factory-quality ergonomics, trackday and club-race competitors who need race-grade hardware without custom fabrication, and owners undertaking sporting modifications who wish to retain the stock gear-change pattern with an OEM-compatible lever arrangement.

Fitment and Compatibility

This rearset is designed and validated specifically for the following motorcycle:

• Suzuki GSX-R 1000 — model years 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023

The system is available in two configurations: rigid footpegs for uncompromising direct feedback, and folding footpegs for riders who want added protection against peg damage during a slide or minor incident on track.
