Are you looking for stock or aftermarket?

Aftermarket like some woodcraft rear sets or something like that need more clearance! Also like the look of it being a lot cleaner that the stock ones with all the rubber.

I hear ya, unfortunately, not many people who buy them are looking to sell them.. You can get Gimbel rear sets from their ebay auction;

http://www.ebay.com/itm/260738085031

Cheaper than Wild Hair (http://www.whaccessories.com/GS500Accessories.htm) Here's a couple photos; Adidas' Phenix (http://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb442/adidasguy/GS500%20Bike%20Build/DSC02223a.jpg), and my project bike Gabby (http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll129/steezin_and_wheezin/IMG_3902.jpg). Gimbel also makes passenger peg adapters (http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll129/steezin_and_wheezin/IMG_4012.jpg) to space out the passenger pegs.

For sure, quality German engineering and materials aren't cheap. My only grip so far is they are fixed pegs.. makes it tough on the shins moving it around the shop haha. Haven't got a chance to ride them yet, but I'm dying to. With 89 clip ons the riding posture is crazy aggressive.

And and ll after market ones I had seen were costly. If you don't like the rubber pegs then just change them out.

I swapped mine out to cbr900rr, but had to make some brackets to push them higher than stock.
