[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 125635, member: 456"] A lot of rear footrest plates have three holes at the top rear to allow for positioning the foot rests to allow maximum passenger comfort. If you have those then you can use the two most forward holes for the foot rests and the most rearward hole for the seat supports. Like a lot of Vincent design there are subtleties in the design which means that there is a further adjustment. The crank on which the footrest rubber sits has an offset which means that a further adjustment is possible. If the two cranks are orientated in such a way that the foot rests are rearward then moving the two footrest assemblies left to right and vice versa means that the two footrest rubbers will now be be moved forwards and might well clear any seat supports which are installed.
