Nieskes Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Look good!! They would sell like hot cakes. Quote
VegasJeff Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Look good!! They would sell like hot cakes. I agree! I would be interested in a pair. Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 Where would you guys want them located from stock? Just back further? If so how much? Down? Let me know and I'll make a couple pairs. I wouldn't even begin to know how much to sell them for. I end up with alot of time in them. The stainless we get doesn't show up looking like that. Quote
Strm Trpr Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 IIRC, the YFZ Pegs are almost centered on the bolt holes. I'd move the pegs centered over the holes and leave just enough clearance over the holes to put the hex head screws back in with a ratchet and may just a 1/4" more clearance for shits and giggles. Your fab skills are top notch, use you best judgement.. How do you plan to handle the offset of the brake lever side? And for those of you that have smaller feet, Pro Design makes a nice billet shifter that is almost 2" shorter in length. I have both the original length shifter and their shorter one. The brake lever would need to be cut and rewelded. Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) The offset was an easy call on my bike. The threads were stripped so I just made a spacer tapped in the middle and welded it to the frame. For the ones I sell I would probably just made a spacer with a thru hole and have all new bolts in the kit. I may be able to make a brake lever too might have to give that a try in the next couple days after I get the peg location on. The factory shifter would be easy to shorten but tough to completely make a new one because of the spline part. It might be pretty cool to have a set of stainless pegs, brake lever and shifter though. The 304 cleans very well with some laquer thinner. I've had these ashtrays for almost a year and the bottom still cleans up and looks brand new. Edited January 25, 2012 by Richie Petty Quote
sprinklerman Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 PM'd. Put me down for a set. Quote
Coupelx Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 damn i want to be able to weld like that! Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 I'll sell a set of pegs, a spacer for the offset on the brake side and new stainless bolts for 125 plus shipping. I would be making them as they got ordered so it might be almost a week before I could get everybody's done. PM me if you definitely want a set. Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 I'll give y'all the option of factory position or moved just let me know what you want and I can make it. Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Posted January 27, 2012 First set is done!! 1" back and just over 1" down. Notice I made the teeth a little finer this time. These things are sharp! Quote
Strm Trpr Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Nice! How do they feel when you ride her? Quote
Richie Petty Posted January 28, 2012 Author Report Posted January 28, 2012 Well I'm missing a motor right now so I haven't got to ride with them yet. They are much more comfortable than the factory positioning even just sitting on it. Your feet would definitely have a hard time sliding off those teeth. First set is headed for New Jersey!! If anyone else wants some let me know. Quote
magz Posted January 31, 2012 Report Posted January 31, 2012 i ;like these, but is there a reason why the metal strips are welded on the outside? would it be possible to weld it flush and add a middle row of teeth? Quote
