RHINO said:I've used a couple of ally bushes in my pegs to take the Suzuki pins, that way i can simply swap back to original pegs if i shrink.
parttimepilot said:Yeah, Like that's gonna happen
Seriously though, I'm on the look out for a Paneuropean as I cant sit comfortably on a Bird at the minute. Might just be the answer:yo:
He could get sacked for that JohnRHINO said:Guy at work is selling a Pan, no details as such but its ?4500
eeer Rhino .. do you mind if i repost this on ukbusas.org ... ??? i know one or two would be interested in this ..RHINO said:Here's a set of pegs i've just bought to fit the BUSA..
The pegs are nearly 2" lower than the standard knee crippling ones fitted. So many people shy away from these bikes because of the riding position, its a ?35 fix.
Part numbers are NO521.1AD & NO520.1AD......they come from a BUELL XBS and they are almost a straight fit barr a touch of filing underneath and an ally bush being turned up.
I believe they are the same as Rolfy has on his BIRD, so all those with Joint problems who wish to lower their pegs a fraction you'de be mad not to give these a try first.
Stockport Harley Davidson got me a pair within 3 days :bow:
Oldbull said:NB: had a bit of a shock yesterday I took it for granted that my new to me Bird would be fine for some long haul touring in stock trim...
went on a 200 mile trip and found that I was wrong.. stock screen is a killer at 70 or above.. pegs feel very high after about 40 miles with my bum knees and I really suffered on the trip..
Going the whole Hog and hope that it sorts me out ..MRA vario screen.. Bar raisers from John and some Buell pegs.. fingers crossed that it sorts me out because I really like the bird but if I cant get it comfortable for touring which is what I bought it for then ..c7u8
Any chance you could get some details?RHINO said:Guy at work is selling a Pan, no details as such but its ?4500

These lowered footpegs might just let me get back on a Bird:-:
Either way I rekon Ill be back on a bike this summer, I wonder if Halfords are still doing a deal on stabilisers:dunno:
Thanks John, Don't worry about the work thing now mate, I've had a few ideas back already. I've PM'd you re the pan. Is it an ABS one?RHINO said:Neil...
Re our phone conversation a few weeks back, i'm struggling to find out any info for you.
Secondly, the Pan Euro is a ST1100 with 22k in immaculate condition.
I have the mobile number for the vendor at work and i'll get more details tonight.
Hey Rolfy,Rolfy Dave said:No worries about any questions...
Dont know what the problem is... My sidestand goes up no hassles...
I have removed the hero blobs, But aprt from that, I also have just sleeved the pegs so that the origional pins are used...
Cheers,
Rolfy
:beer:
Sorry mate, mine are installed on the bike, and with the arm in its present condition its a bit difficult to strip down...:xmOldbull said:Rhino/Rolfy you got the bush sizes please .. mite as well get them made up while Im waiting
Cheers
parttimepilot said:As a matter of interest, Rolfy, What did you use to sleeve the pegs?
Rubber tubing?:dunno: and how did you "fine tune it"?
If this lowers them enough I just might get a bird again soon:bow:
If not I'm off to join the "Pan Clan"
