#106668 GJCARVING (User) Glad to be on the Clinic!!! Expert Boarder Posts: 570 Rear Pegs??? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Hello! Looking for anyway to lower and put forward the Passenger pegs for my girlfriend! We routinely do 200+ miles, and it's killing her knees! I know about the switching sides and flip, but not possible as I have the stock pipes on it! They are drilled, but all I can afford now. Any help would be great! I don't want to but will get into making custom brackets! Thanks...   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/08/06 20:13 By GJCARVING.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #106670 billjr (User) RIDE LIKE YOUR INVISABLE!!!!!!!!!!! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1118 Re:Rear Pegs??? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Hey GJ, my wife was getting uncomfy on long rides and I tried lower and all, and it didnt work for her, the floorboards helped but she still got cramped, so on a trip on day she took off her shoes and put her feet on my seat and it releived her, takeing the wheight off of the backs of her legs. She told me I needed to come up with something for her so I did, but they will only work with the floorboards as far as I know, I havnt tried them with the stock pegs. What do ya think?????   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #106672 billjr (User) RIDE LIKE YOUR INVISABLE!!!!!!!!!!!

Then loosen the other bolt just enough to rotate the bracket forward to a position that will just clear the pipe. Reach around the inside of the frame and with a marker, mark the location of the hole for the removed bolt. Take it off and drill it. That simple. Make sure that the left side clears everything.   Logged     New England rider since 1972,7th bike, EMT.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #106788 bmatpt (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 134 Re:Rear Pegs??? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I completely rebuilt mine. My wife is 6 ft. tall and has about 40 inch legs. My bracket is about 5-6 inches lower than stock and forward slightly. You can see it in my sig pic a little. If you want I will take a better pick this evening and post.   Logged     Riding and Jeeping is always better than the alternative   The administrator has disabled public write access. #106840 bmatpt (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 134 Re:Rear Pegs??? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Here are some pics http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm278/bmatpt/Aug08342.jpg http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm278/bmatpt/Aug08341.jpg http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm278/bmatpt/Aug08340.jpg I had a local welder do it. It cost me $30.   Logged     Riding and Jeeping is always better than the alternative   The administrator has disabled public write access.
