R&G Cotton Reels (Offset) for Yamaha YZF-R1/R1M '07-, Yamaha MT-10 '16-, SP '17-

R&G Offset Cotton Reels directly replace the OE chain adjusters on the rear swingarm, off-setting the cotton reel mounting point from installed directly into the swingarm, instead into a specially machined metal bracket. Offering the best of both worlds in terms of crash protection and functionality with the ability to use the R&G Offset Cotton Reels bobbins as paddock stand bobbins for tyre/chain maintenance as well as offering crash protection to the rear wheel components. Specially designed for the Yamaha YZF-R1/R1M '07- , Yamaha MT-10 '16- & SP '17-, TMAX 560 '20- & TMAX TECH MAX '22- models, R&G Offset Cotton Reels are designed to replace the OEM chain adjuster blocks, offsetting the cotton reel installation point further rearward, this is because, under extreme riding condition, the OEM/Aftermarket exhausts have been known to impact with a standard sized (traditionally swingarm mounted) cotton reel as well making it easier to locate and lift onto a paddock stand. Sold in pairs.

Cotton Reels are large paddock-stand supports that thread into the mounting points on your swingarm, giving you a secure and reliable lifting point while also helping protect the swingarm itself in the event of a slide or drop. 

For bikes where the mounting holes aren’t centred or the swingarm shape creates clearance issues, we also offer offset Cotton Reels. These use a stepped or angled design to shift the lifting point outward, ensuring the paddock stand engages cleanly and safely — even when a straight, screw-in reel won’t fit correctly.

Whatever your swingarm layout, standard or awkward, there’s a cotton reel option that keeps your bike stable and easy to lift.
