TeamRealtreeHD Posted June 2, 2009 Report Posted June 2, 2009 Got a direct drive lockout from Jeff at FAST... He says there shouldn't be any modifying the peg or anything on the right side. He is sending a cover, the lense, the clutch, etc. The whole thing. Just wondering if any of you guys had any troubles? I trust his word, and many others told me it should be fine. Only reason I am worried is because I just got polished chrome footpegs, and don't really feel like chopping into the right side peg lol... to make it fit. Thanks guys! Quote
NickisGod Posted June 2, 2009 Report Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) your foot pegs will fit but buy a clutch saver/pancake bearing!!!!!! turst me dont make the same mistake i made, lockups create a whole shitload of unnecessary stress when you pull it the clutch to decelerate.

Tony I've had zero problems since I installed my lockout. You might have to grind a little to avoid rubbage. I had to,but it was very minimal. Quote
LiftdT4R Posted June 2, 2009 Report Posted June 2, 2009 I've had zero problems since I installed my lockout. You might have to grind a little to avoid rubbage. I had to,but it was very minimal. I agree, mine went on super easy, the foot peg had to be adjusted just a tad. I do have trouble with my rear brake lever hitting the cover when it is in the normal position. As soon as you apply the brake, and let it go, you can hear it hit the bottom of the clutch cover. I think my rear brake might just be out of adjustment though. Quote
jbooker82 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 I ground my peg too. That way it would have a little room. I also bent my brake lever out a little as well. I think the cover fit with no mods but as much as my banshee engine vibrates I gave it a little extra room. Quote
swrbansheeboy Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 just grab some longer foot peg bolts and a couple washers to shim your peg out farther to clear the lockout cover, this is much easier than grinding the peg and will also give you some extra clearance to bend your brake lever if needed...

locogato11283 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 its tight for sure. i run roll design pegs and i just got rid of the rear brake all together to avoid problems. :biggrin: Quote
TeamRealtreeHD Posted June 5, 2009 Author Report Posted June 5, 2009 I will put the motor in, see how it fits. If it's too tight, or a little tight for my liking, I plan to buy the washers and bolts and shim it if need be, because I can't grind these chromed pegs lol Quote
2001Stroker Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 My right peg is nowhere near fitting around my Direct Drive cover. It is the older 6-bolt cover though. I'm debating either taking 1/4" off the pegs, or shimming it out 1/4" Quote

It depends on how slutty your foot pegs are........... If they have big, ugly, welds where the peg attaches to its bracket, you might need to grind the peg a bit. Quote

If they have big, ugly, welds where the peg attaches to its bracket, you might need to grind the peg a bit. I'm sitting here thinking how you managed to relate slutty to footpegs. On a sidenote, are the 12 bolt DD covers shallower than the 6bolt ones? Quote
