Pillion peg lowering

Postby davem » Mon Aug 04, 2014 3:11 pm

Hi guys! after a few years without a bird i'll be picking one up on Thursday, my mrs rides pillion now and I want to be able to lower the pegs for her as much as possible due to a disability, what option will give me the lowest peg position? Thanks!

Jaws Stocks a kit but I think it only lowers about an inch, I fitted a set of Buell pegs which lowered mine about the same..

Any mates in engineering ?? pretty easy to make a set to your spec.. you will lose the ability to lift them up tho. Dont mount the bike on them tho, ask her to stand on the front pegs to get on and off.. :thumbsup)

Thanks! was hoping there was an off the shelf option that would lower a bit more than the Jaws kit, may need to look into the bespoke option then :(

anyone used the vario adjustable pegs? I see they do one with a 50mm adjustment but worried that it may foul the can
