New Yoshi Peg Replacements are SEXXXY!

KawiRider · February 12th, 2011, 05:47 AM

Oh my god! I saw these and thought "Die all you ebay wannabe's!" Yeah they run a little expensive.. $110 from Yoshimura themselves, but with their rearset adjusters, the yoshi people could have a hit for those of us that don't want full rearsets. Check out this link!

those do look nice

or, you could move the passenger pegs to the front and get them powder-coated for about $20

Yeah, you get what you pay for

ztrack157 · February 13th, 2011, 06:16 PM

So with the pegs and their adjuster your at $200+ which you can almost get a set of rear sets for. But they do look nice.

I haven't seen any that look like this for half the price... Someone tell me where. I have also decided to make mine a Yoshi Edition 250R, as they are coming out with more parts for it and I won't trust my safety, or monetary investment to some rinkydink machine shop, when I know Yoshimura has been tinkering on bikes for over half a century successfully. So yeah, the name does come with a price, but for those willing to pay it, they get exactly what they pay for, not the imitation of it.

I didn't want to take too much time searching for something I wasn't interested in buying for myself... but here are a few options that I came across for no more than half the price:

You can get these from fatbikez.com for $46 from Yana Shiki:

Or maybe these from solomotoparts.com for $28 from Gilles Tooling:

Or how about these from solomotoparts.com for $51 from Competition Werkes:

In the end... you are right, you pay for the name... and if thats important to you than by all means go for it. If it were me and I wanted to swap out my pegs that bad, I would go for some rearsets myself... we are all different though and thats what makes forum communities so great. If we were all the same this would be a very boring place

KawiRider · February 16th, 2011, 05:11 AM

I looked at those Gilles ones. Those were my next best choice! If I thought that in my lifetime I would take it to a track, I would go with the Vortex rearsets, but some agressive pegs will do. I beleive it now when they say people are now interested in price more than a good proven quality product.

The Intuitive frame sliders are a great example. How much research went into them before marketing? Probably not a whole lot, because if they did, they would know their product wasn't worth crap as it tears up more than it protects in a crash. I think most of us know to buy the Shoguns.

On that note, Yoshi is coming out with a Frame Slider Set and I want them already!!
