Title: cr wide footpegs on ebay
Post by: Paddles on August 04, 2010, 11:05:08 am: This is just a heads up for whoever's interested, there's some wide steel footpegs to suit '88 to '94 CR's available on ebay for $20 with free postage to Australia from Hong Kong at the moment which i reckon is a red hot price. I've grabbed a set because i reckon they'll fit my '86 RG as well but there's 9 sets still left on his advert.

I was being a bit sarcastic ::). These pegs are just fine. It might shock a few of the anti Chinese parts lobby to know that most of the expensive "Made in the USA" pegs are made alongside the cheap eBay Chinese item. The only difference is the packaging. ;)

I just cut a bit off the shank at the bottom of the mount (on the new peg), straightened the end of the spring & bobs your uncle, nice wide footrests!
