I actually just saw that seller on ebay also - no feedback that I know but am in the market for the relocation kit as well...I'd be interested to hear any thoughts...

Thanks for beating me to it...

Looks very nice. Plus it does say you do not have to bend anything to make it work. Looking very close at getting one.

I don't like looks of it personally. It's 2 pieces side by side and the oft comes with oilite bushings where as this looks to reuse the stock worn out bushings.

It does not reuse the stock bushings. The wear will be on the aluminum surface and if kept greased will probably last a long time. I don't think it's a bad option but the OFT version is probably the better of the two. I made my own which reuses the stock bushings and it's worked very well for me and a few others.

One other thing worth noting is the radius we use on the cap of the relocator allows us to move the post as vertical as possible while still staying under the instrument panel. Here is a picture off the eBay add showing the hole in the IP.

Showing how the cap on the OFT Racing allows the most vertical movement without interference.

We do bend the mounting bolts in order to keep the clamping forces direct in line with the block. This assures that our blocks will align perfectly with each other and allowing us to build to the tightest tolerances possible.

I also put on the oft kit and was surprise about the bolt bending as much as the mechanic at the yamaha dealer that instaled it, but he said that the product was a lot better than the sock one. Also the owner think that the product is great enough that he will not bother for anything that may have to be replace under warenty. I also put the i. p vent that the dealer also liked a lot, they also instaled it on the sled. So if dealer like oft that much, that probably for the qality of the products. The other produc mays also be good to, but I have 2k with oft parts and everithing is still perfect.

I just put this on my nytro looks good but the angle on the bottom piece isn't correct had to grind it was rubbing on the stem. Other then that it was easy to install and puts the bars in a good location.

The OFT is the better option. The oilite bushings are the way to go. Just MO.
