Title: Pivot Pegz
Post by: dave_simpson on April 28, 2014, 08:12:05 pm
Found them for 127.91 shipped to my door at big bad powersports online. the out them on today and went for a ride. definatley make it easier to shift and more comfortable. i was wearing tennis shoes and i had no issues shifting- it was easier. i tried standing and that may have some pluses and minuses. when standing i could hit the rear brake easier and shift easier. i wasnt offroad so i dont know. but defiantely better on road. i didnt take them apart to lower them just bolted them as i got them. same height but the peg is a lot wider and the same size long. they could have made them longer but i dont find myself hanging my feet off the edge anymore because of the pivot.

I've had them for a while now and find it's easier to shift and brake with MX boots also. I think they could be a bit wider. But on the other side they keep my toes in tight.

I spent a fair amount of time and way too much ca$h riding rallyes...because you might ride 500 miles per day, and most of it off-road - so on the pegs- something like pivots were a good idea. But as a cheap alternative, a lot of guys would use the Dremel to cut some brackets and mount skateboard wheels to them in the required position.
Just saying....
