Got the pegs, but not the sleeves... Rhino, are you serious about making some up? If so, name your price, as I'll definately have a couple! :bow:

Rhino,

Have you got any close up, as in, very closeup, shots of the pegs fitted? Both sides of the bike if possible.

cheers in anticipation,

Mike

What i'll need is to measure the mounting piont on the BIRD and get them machined up for ya.. I can have a few sets done.

I'll probably buy a few sets of pegs too and mod them ready to go straight on.

I have no pics of them fitted to a BIRD close up but can get them of a BUSA close up.

Rhino, thats' ok, it's not a Bird that I want to fit them to!

I've just finished fitting a Givi hard luggage setup to my Thunderace, cheers to JAWS for the powder coating :bow: , and lowering the pillion footrests a touch would be the final touch for the comfort of the passenger, and those pegs you have maybe just the ticket.

This one is my second Ace, although you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between this and the first one!

Modded this one a little bit to make it more Two-up friendly for those long trips in the UK (we use the Strom when in Europe ---- mostly!), still without a doubt the best bike(s) I have ever owned and ridden.

They are handed, yes. You can't fit them the other hand round or they'd hinge the wrong way as they're machined to only fold backwards c7u8
