    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I've got them on my '78 550. Very good quality, near perfect design, adjustable and repairable, comes with all necessary hardware, and installs in about 10 minutes. Also, they can easily be removed if you want to replace the stock pegs when you sell. You can get steel or rubber pegs, rigid or folding.

I recommend them. Rarely will you see an aftermarket product for a 30-year-old bike that is so perfectly designed and packaged, that is so easily installed and that works so well.
 
Bolt on and go. :D

Only problem I have had was with the clevis pin that uses a OD snap-ring on the shift lever and rod connection.

Parts: 02 0031 and 02 0028 per that diagram on Fast From the Past.

It buzzed out, and it is now laying on the side of the road somewhere between Sanger and Denton, TX. Sort of a pain to try and down shift, and nothings there. Just replaced it with a bolt and nylock nut, so far no problems since.

they bolt right to where the stock ones go.

I am curious as to what the difference is between these and stock. it looks like about 3inches back and 1 up, from the pics, which is about what I am after. what say you?
