Thanks for Leaving hangin Hoony (thanks for the tyre) . Have to answer me own posts. Well with your words ringing in my ears ( should just stay on the loop track) i went out on the main track ,cased out on the whoops and busted a peg off . Emma had a few laps running with the KTM boys but they were a bit faster than her but she rode well and Lana had a good ride . So i need to replace my pegs now has anyone fitted big pegs to a YZ400E ?.

Try this Hilly.

About half way down the page.  There's some other good stuff there too.
I have heard of people leaving the bracket the way it is and shimming the pin to leave more meat on the mounting brackets.

Good luck
Looking for YZ250C parts NOS if possible

The only triple jumps he would have been doing are the hop, skip & jump.
