Loose passenger pegs - why won't they stay up?

[Dasmoetorhead]

On my 2022 F3S my passenger pegs, particularly the left side, will not stay in the up position. I've tightened them both several times until the bolts won't move, and they still will not stay up. Not sure what else I can do to keep them in the folded position. It's annoying.

Are the bolts loosening or just won't tighten enough? If they are coming loose some BLUE Loctite may solve the issue. Otherwise buy some star washers or other type of lock washers and put them behind the pegs.

They loosen a little bit, but their still pretty tight. I might try some loctite.

I don't know about the F-3 ..... but I had an 08 GS and an 11 RSS , the driver pegs had springs, the passenger pegs had spring loaded ball bearings, they would allow the pegs to be raised and held in the up position by the ball bearings. look at a FICHE' and see how yours are supposed to work .....
