racer Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 I've emailed the pictures to Dave. Here is what you do, buy some blaster footpegs off ebay for 10bucks, cut the pegs off and use a transfer punch to create a new bracket out of 1/4'' stock. Cut your stock pegs off and weld them to the blaster pegs. Use a piece of 1'' angle to brace underneath, and a 2 1/4'' piece of rectangluar tubing with one end cut off for your extensions. You'll have to put a 1/2'' spacer on the footpeg where your right foot goes. Weld it all together and paint it with some Rustolem and bolt everything up. I've been real pleased with them, and I only spent 15bucks and 1hour of labor vs. 1days pay for the IMS ones. Marc pictures are needed def. ive got a good imagination but im still not puttin all of this together. Quote
Blue Duece Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 i first performed it on my 85 banshee the day i brought it home from the dealership. i think i was about 2 at that time. I heard when the yamaha R&d team, way back in the day designed the Banshee, the initial shop drawings, were just of one big fuckin peg with tires...... Quote

I was the first to perform the shocker for sure! i meant on a human, not an animal Quote
