gstallons Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 you could make a different exhaust system with mufflers that were parallel to the ground. Then you could make footpegs to suit you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzimeister Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hi Mike you lower the footpegs - I can't upload pics as they are too big. If you want them write to guzzimeister@aol.com. I had mine machined from ali bar and they are grossly over engineered, you could easily reduce the thickness along most of the length by half and tidy the corners up a bit. My mate did these so I didn't like to presume on his kindness. The actual pegs I got from M&P, stainless, for a tenner. They use an M10 fine thread but I bastardised a M10 coarse bolt into each one by filing a groove on the latter's thread and using it as a tap - they will not vibrate ogff. At the frame end they are held to the original hangers with M6 bolts as I found the original footrest pivot pins and circlips tended to vibrate loose. Angle of the dangle was about 19 degrees as I remember but measure it from the drawing with a protractor to be sure!! I wouldn't stand on them to get on the bike but they are plenty strong enough once you are on. Mine have done 37K so far without issues. Hope it helps Guzzimeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
