Cheap rearsets?

Hi,

I'm finding my 2016 bike very uncomfortable during leans over 40 degrees. I don't feel proper grip anywhere at those angles and although I reached far lean angles at the track I also know that a slight bump will probably lead to me losing control of the bike.

I'm 175cm tall and 72kg weight (around 10kg of gear at the track) and I find it impossible for my knees to reach the tank. In fact my knees are mostly gripping on the metal part of the frame that heats up like hell. (because I'm wearing full gear I don't really feel it).

I'm wondering if anyone else has the same issue and I'm also considering changing the rearsets for cheap Chinese ones (you can easily find them in ebay as CNC rearsets and they cost around 73 GBP)

Any thoughts? Yes I don't want to spend much..
