| | Posted : 18 Jul 2013 - 12:34 Post title : added some foot pegs | | | after a number of long trips riding 2 up, where I could not use the pillion pags as a optional riding position change. I descided to add these peg mounts. They are near to the original pillion peg location but slightly lower. Since the actual pillion foot pegs were already moved up and back there is plently of room to get my feet on these. Its nice to be able to move around a bit when you are trying to knock off a couple hundered miles at a time.
The 2 pegs complete weigh less than a pound.
peg up - you dont even see it.
peg down

there was a hole already in the foot peg/exhaust subframe to mount to and then I drilled another to beef up the mounting more.

I'd like to replicate the setup, only in my case, to lower and move forward the rear pegs to make them a more comfortable position option for me. Thanks!

it may be possible to do what you want by taking the stock peg mount and flipping it over. it is a symetrical part, so it will bolt up. I dont know it is would put the peg where you want it though. THe peg itself would have to be taken off and filpped over (there is a slot that loactes it)
