• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Another Passenger Footpeg Idea

I bought/fabricated a set of road peg brackets to provide an alternate position for my feet on long trips. I mounted Longhorn Offset Dually pegs. When I installed them, it looked like a simple adapter (fabricated) on the rear peg would allow me to use the same peg set to move the passenger foot peg position down and forward and provide flexibility. Here are some pictures of the install and the 1" x 1" x 3" aluminum adapter.

Great idea

This looks great, and I think I will give it a whirl too, not sure how it it will take BP to have the rear peg relocator kit available. Nice one.:thumbup:
 
Where did you get the 1 x 1 x 3 billet block. Did you make this adapter or did you buy them. I got the impression you bought them - if so can you tell me where?

Thanks, Juice
 
The adapters were cut from a from 1" x 1" aluminum bar cut to legnth. Two holes drilled, one to fit the pin on the bike's OEM mount and one for the footpeg. Simply cut the bar to whatever legnth you want, mark the position for the pin and drill. (Suggest a drill press for accuracy) The 1/2" hole for the pegs should be placed to assure there is no "overhang" on the base of the peg's offset piece. The pin hole is a metric drill size. I used a caliper to find the best match. You don't want this mounting hole to be sloppy.

Would not assume the right and left mounts are mirrors of each other. Measure each one.

Thanks for sharing! I'll probably install this to help the wife be more comfy on long rides! :thumbup:

Thanks for the info Rokonman:D I appreciate your help. If you start mass producing these I will buy a set from you. I'm not that well tooled in the garage department:rolleyes:
