@@jeep_jedi607 I didn't make a follow-up video review but I can say these lower brackets made it much easier to get the toe of my boot under the shifter. I haven't noticed an increase in vibrations to my feet either. I'm very satisfied with these brackets.
Did you end up adjusting the brake lever? I maxed mine out and unfortunately still can't get it to a comfortable (low enough) height with the JNS lowering bracket. wondering if you just decided to leave yours maxed out or if you found a solution past that?
Seriously, you had to drill out the holes to use the factory pins? And they didn't provide compatible pins? I see that JNS even linked to the SwankyCat review where he resorted to using a mallet to drive them through. Either way, sounds like they're out of spec - that would be a deal breaker for me. Glad you got them sorted though - looking forward to the ride review once you have everything dialed in. And that was a good PSA about using extra caution on those welded nuts. What a nightmare that would be if one of those sheared off. Would be just my luck, given my track record with cheap torque wrenches (though I've learned my lesson)
Yeah. They’re a couple of thousandths under. Some folks have speculated it’s the powder coating but I definitely cut metal to get the pins in. It would be kind of a deal breaker if there were any alternative lowering brackets out there.
@@SuburbanPathfinder I've been running the Ebay knockoffs and they are only half the price. Dimensions seem pretty close to these. Keeping a close eye on them but so far so good.
Sir can u tell me if u are getting much on off throttle pop from your Delkevic exhaust? I have the 9" carbon fiber and I'm getting some. All clamps are torqued to spec too. Delkevic told me if I wanted to upgrade to the longer like yours, it may help. I appreciate your feedback!
I get a little every once in a while but not so much as to be annoying. Mostly before the engine is really hot and then mostly using engine compression to slow the bike before a stop sign or light. I’d say it’s an acceptable amount of popping. With the baffle out, it can be quite startling to passersby though.
No. Not really. I haven’t taken any really long rides since changing them but I’ve taken a few hour long rides and I haven’t noticed any serious vibration.

I had the JNS Engineering peg lowering kit for my GEN 2 KLR and they where fantastic, I will always use their product.
Greetings,
As always another brilliant detailed video production 🇺🇲🍾🎉🇺🇲
Keep producing more videos about the KLR.
I just put the JNS kit on mine and I love the foot placement a lot better
Those tank pads look amazing. Thanks for the great info!
Thank you!
I really love those Attack Graphics pads. One of my favorite upgrades I’ve done. I think they give a much more finished look to the bike.
Did you ever make a post video review? I'm curious if it solved your problem. Thanks

@@HosephGillcrist I think I moved it down one spline and it works for me.

@@thorsmith59 that’s interesting. Thanks!
@@thorsmith59 Thanks for the tip! No way in hell are these steel brackets worth $100, I'll get the knockoffs. After all, I'm a KLR owner.

@@SuburbanPathfinder thanks sir! I might consider switching to the longer version like yours. I think the short one is more prone to the issue.
my 22 klr has some slight popping sometimes, especially as he stated, when using engine braking to slow the bike with the stock pipe.
Did the foot peg vibration increase significantly?
No. Not really.
