I'm already a cripple. :'(. I've had Chinese stainless steel footpegs on two of my bikes for a fair while and as we say in Spain, "no hay problema". It's worth the experiment on the handlebars. Royal Enfield has been making good solid motorbikes in New Delhi for decades. The bikes are pretty solid old things that'll rarely let you down. Why wouldn't their handlebars be decent? AsHuskibul wrote the Japanese bars from the seventies that you blokes all seem to idolise were soft crap, the Royal Enfield stuff would have to be better than them. It wouldn't be hard.
Here's the crunch on pegs......Jonesy does business in China on a regular basis and during some research he discovered that nearly all of the high falootin' expensive brand fatty pegs you pay $100 plus for at Ballards or your local bike emporium are made in the same factories that make the pitbike stuff. Except for the graphics and flash packaging, they're the exact same item.
Granted, a lot of the Chinese stuff is crapola, built to a price but if you took the time to scratch the surface you'd find some really good stuff that make even the big name products look dodgy by comparison.
I'm old enough to remember when everyone laughed at Japanese bikes, now look at what they make. Beware of the Chinese once they start to get it right.
