LighTech Rearset Kit Yamaha YZF-R6 RJ27 (2017–2026) FTRYA012

The LighTech FTRYA012 rearset kit brings genuine versatility to the Yamaha YZF-R6 RJ27, covering every model year from 2017 through 2026 and working equally well on daily road rides and track days. With adjustable footpeg positions, ball-bearing shift and brake levers, and full compatibility with both standard and reverse shift patterns, this is the rearset that grows with your riding rather than limiting it.

Key Features

• CNC-machined from Ergal 7075-T6 aluminium for a strong, lightweight construction that resists flex under hard braking and aggressive cornering
• Ball-bearing shift lever and brake lever deliver precise, consistent feedback lap after lap or mile after mile
• Multiple footpeg position adjustments for height and rearward offset, letting you dial in ergonomics for road comfort or track aggression
• Compatible with both standard and reverse shift patterns, making it an ideal base for race-spec builds
• Fixed silver footpegs and toe pegs included as standard; the folding variant FTRYA012W is available separately and carries ABE road-use approval
• Every individual component is available to order separately, so crash damage or wear never means replacing the entire assembly
• Complete fitting kit included — no additional hardware required for installation

Build Quality and Everyday Usability

Ergal 7075-T6 is an aerospace-grade aluminium alloy chosen by LighTech for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to fatigue. The CNC-milling process ensures tight tolerances throughout, so every adjustment clicks into place cleanly and holds its position under load. The silver anodised finish resists corrosion and scuffing through seasons of use, keeping the kit looking sharp without demanding constant attention.

The ball-bearing lever pivots are a practical detail that pays dividends on long rides: the shift and brake levers operate with the same smooth, light action at the end of a full day in the saddle as they do at the start. Riders who prefer a reverse shift pattern for track use will find the system accommodates the conversion without any additional adapters.

Track Days and Road Riding

On the road, the fixed footpegs provide a planted, feedback-rich platform that suits the YZF-R6's committed riding position. The position adjustability means taller or shorter riders can optimise their triangle without resorting to compromise. For track use, the rigid footpeg construction eliminates the small amount of flex inherent in factory rubber-mounted pegs, translating corner-entry body positioning more directly into rider feel. Riders running the folding-peg FTRYA012W variant gain ABE type approval for unrestricted road use in Germany.
