Has anyone tried these?

dubojr1 · September 17th, 2010, 05:16 AM

Nice find!!!

demp · September 17th, 2010, 05:17 AM

I think I might swap out my woodcraft ones for these :O

dubojr1 · September 17th, 2010, 05:18 AM

Well please report back if you do. Love to know how they fit and function.

why is that?

good find on the brackets. a good quality product at a reasonable price from a reputable manufacturer.... hopefully they will be available for a bit less.

Luckily, I found $50 on the ground today in the city, so I'll cough up $50 of my own and buy these rear sets. I'll give some feedback once I get them and put them on.

and pictures... lots of pictures.

caferacer · September 17th, 2010, 07:10 PM

I machined up a set very similar to these for a honda cb 400 f a few years back. They worked very well and I was very happy with them. I am not sure what would cause the flexing. Mine were 6061 aircraft aluminum and i did not have this problem. Possibly they are cut too thin for the application.

250rStar · September 18th, 2010, 12:24 AM

hmm if i got extra money after i get paid i'ma buy them and let ya guys know whats up

jamiel · September 18th, 2010, 04:15 AM

Excuse the ignorance - but what sort of benefits do these add for 100 bucks?

dubojr1 · September 18th, 2010, 05:34 AM

They move your foot pegs back down and back. They are especially useful to us guys with longer legs to help us get our legs under the tank lip.

Back about 1-3/4" and up either 1-1/4 or 1 3/4" (approx).

X2 on the long-legs..

Gives it a more aggressive stance, as well.

I like these.. the price, the look... but "nix" on the reservoir hose cutting.

Yeah, I'm not too sure about cutting the hose, but I'll figure it out when I get them. I might not even cut it simply because I never use the rear brake unless I'm taking off from a steep hill. I'll probably just leave it until I buy a SS line for the rear and replace it with that.

I thought it felt a little off, but everything was working so I thought nothing of it. Got on the bike this morning to find the brake pedal *bent* to the side O.o so, I've swapped back to my stock pegs for the time being - ordering these now

my guess would be too thin

edbro · October 13th, 2010, 05:29 PM

Just got these in today, will do an install by this weekend, hopefully on Friday.

Im so J!!!!

still waiting for the damn mail man to drop it off

on a another note yoshi is coming out with a fender elim kit and crash protectors

edbro · October 15th, 2010, 10:50 AM

Just finished putting them on. It's a quick and easy install...took me about 40 minutes total. However, I did not cut the rear brake reservoir hose, so I didn't spend time bleeding the brakes. I didn't have brake fluid on me so I'll save that part for next spring when I flush out the front fluid as well.

I'll have some pictures later when I take it out for a test.

jamiesawatzky · March 15th, 2011, 01:21 PM

got mine in today. hopefully installed in a week or two

KURT · March 15th, 2011, 09:58 PM

I installed mine, a couple days ago. Still don't have quite enough legroom, with a 32" inseam, but it's a little better.

I do wish the paint and bolts matched the factory kawi hardware.

jamiesawatzky · March 17th, 2011, 11:34 AM

kurt- which setting did you find the best? the lower or higher

KURT · March 17th, 2011, 09:04 PM

I went with the lower, less-radical setting.

My aim was to set the pegs back, with raising them being just a side effect.
