Pass Footpeg -- how do I tighten them?

[seagravesg]

2020 F3-T passenger footpeg is loose and will not stay in the raised/non-use position. I tried the hex head bolt but cannot budge it. Not sure what to do if I do get it loosened other than add another washer. Any suggestions?

I know on my 2017 F3 limited the passenger floor boards will also not stay upright out of the way. When the floorboard is raised it will rub the panel and if it would stay upright it would scratch the panel. So I just leave it in the down position.

Rocket is correct.

On our 2016 I took the pegs off and lubricated the bolt and that fixed it.

My right one is the same way on my 2019 F3-S. I just put a dab of black silicone in the gap to hold it up. If I need service, I'll have it fixed under warranty.

Highwayman, Did you have difficulty getting the bolts loosened. How did you remove them is difficult?
I can't loosen mine w/o more torque than I am comfortable....concerned I'll strip the hex fitting??

You have to use heat. A. Propane torch will work. About 30 seconds on each then raise the peg and heat underneath.
