For unknown reasons last year Gilles Stopped making their Superbike Chain Adjusters for A few model bikes.
Well after almost one year of wait they have finally released the ALL NEW DESIGN.
These are called the TECA GT Adjusters.
AVAILABLE FOR THESE BIKES
'04-'09 CBR1000RR
'07-'08 R1
'09-'10 R1
06-07 & '08-'09 GSX-R600
06-07 & '08-'09 GSX-R750
'05-'08 GSX-R1000
'09-'10 GSX-R1000
COLORS: GOLD / BLACK / TITANIUM
FEATURES:
brilliant gilles tooling design
unique, innovative chain adjuster
high-Precision chain adjustment by graded scale
by applying the scale you can compensate serial tolerances
rear wheel position can be read off in ?mm"
easier rear wheel installation
braces the axle against compressive-and tensile load
optional lifter and stand bolts to jackup the bike easily
optional crash pads to protect axle and swing arm
easy installation
available in different precious hard anodized colors
Basically, Gilles is saying, they are all new design that is pretty cool.
Best of ALL, they are a little LESS, then the original Design SBK Adjusters.
So that's kinda nice as well.

Well, I guess high quality goods come with a price. I'll have to wait for a bit before I will be able to grab those bad boys.

Loads of them broke, and they also didn't keep their adjustment. Gilles even issued a "fix" to stop it happening, putting the original chain adjuster bolt back in, so you had two lots of adjustment for each side to do!
Almost as shite as their rearsets imho, I had loads of trouble with three sets on three different bikes (Suzuki Bandit, GSXR1000 05 and 07)

Guess, that is the reason they redesigned them.
