pillion pegs

Postby Jason M » Sat Apr 24, 2004 3:41 pm

Don't suppose anyone has a spare set of pillion pegs they want to get rid of do they - I've got the hangers, but one of the pegs has gone missing - can't see how cos the retaining pin is captive top and bottom - but it's gone anyway. My daughter is gagging to get on the bike and I don't want to disuade her at all :lol:

ps - went to Carls today cos he's just up the road. Sat on his 2 (yes 2!) Bimotas - they're like sitting on a flippin pushbike they're so light. 'Quality' though with a capital 'Qual', and beautiful too. His bargain rockster sitting in the corner too - and carpet in the garage too. Biking heaven!

Jason, sorry no I don't.
But I bike I looked at before I bought mine had some aftermarket alloy pegs fitted to the standard hangers and they looked quite in keeping with the style of the bike. less than £20 I think.

Jason,
Have you tried Motorworks or the place in Devon for secondhand?
Think I have seen the aftermarket ones in Hein Gericke.
Afraid I don't know where the one I actually saw on the bike came from.

Good luck with your search.

Jason,

If you can't find the BMW pegs for a good price, try these from Oberon Engineering:

They even do black! You can find their web site at http://www.oem-uk.com

And before anyone asks, no I'm not on commission.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Chears Paul - they look mighty tasty - I'll take a look. I seem to remember just the normal basic BM peg (they come in about 1000 difference pieces!) was about £20 each (from when I dropped it trying to ride up a sandy duney thing DOH) so that price seems good - and no blobs either!

thanks

Jason

I can recommend the Oberon pegs as I have them and they fit a treat. They are just down the road from you in Havant and they've just opened up a new outlet.
