• 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.

Rotating footpegs

Does anybody know a way to rotate the driver's footpegs on an RT? The factory musta thought the ryder would be sitting on the headlights. As they are now, my shoe only contacts the back edge of the footpeg. I asked the shop and they said the pegs were keyed into place and could not be rotated. True? (BTW, I normally like pegs and have never wanted boards.) Thanks.
 
They do have two bolts that hold it in place. You could take the lower bolt out but I'm not sure how much rotation you can get out of it without shimming the peg out a bit.
 
If you look at the foot pegs you will see there is rubber on the front of the peg rolling over the metal. When you get on or are riding you put force on the peg pushing the rubber away from the metal. I would think the rolled over rubber would be in the back.

My wife had a problem on her '10 RT when she first got it. She said she felt like she was riding downhill as the pegs seemed to angle downward.

I took them off and put the left on the right side and vice versa. I had a problem on the left side as the peg assembly needed to have a piece of metal removed to make it fit. A little grinding and it slipped into place. Be very careful of the bolts that hold the rubbers onto the pegs as they screw into very soft metal that is easy to strip. Thread them back in carefully and don't cross thread.
