Valter Moto Plates

Morning all…well it's the morning here in the UK.

Got a question for you. Picked up a 98 blade last week, very happy with it so far, only downside is the lack of leg room. It's not too bad at the moment, but I reckon the minute I start racking up big miles my knees are going to suffer.

Anyway, I saw that there are footrest jack up plates made by a compnay called Valter Moto (you are probably aware of this already). Anyway, in the UK I can't get them anywhere as they seem to have been discontinued, every UK supplier I have tried has no stock.

So, that’s the question, does anyone know where I can buy these now? I e-mailed the manufacturer direct, but have had no reply.
Any ideas?

Have you tried Demon Tweeks for them ,they also do a set by LSL thats almost the same .

Tried Demon Tweeks, despite being listed in the catalogue they don't stock them anymore.

The plates can be fitted upside down, which means the foot position drops & goes back about an inch.
