The pillion pegs use a detent ball/spring to keep them in the up down position. The rider pegs are not set-up like this so they are not compatible in the pillion mount locations.
Too much work. An overly complicated set-up. Take a hammer and a two inch 1/2 extension and beat the footpeg pin from the bottom. This will break the "tab". You can now remove the footpeg pin like a normal footpeg pin. Put the pin in a vice or hold it with vice grips, drill out the pin. Once the pin and spring have been drilled out continue drilling out the pin. To reinstall it get a thin washer that fits, get a couple short aluminum cotter pins that fit the hole and install them just like you would on a dirtbike. Makes life a lot easier. 🤣
Thanks 🙏🏼 I bought the 80grit pegs ..size 14 shoe so that old chestnut
I find the footpegs to be a little too far back, and the gear shift lever entirely too small.Has anyone found a fix for this if they agree?
Thanks it was very helpful ❤
Nice and easy
Great video and very informative.
Question: can the same size pegs also be used for the passenger? Or it’s a different size
