As a lot of you know, I designed machined up a custom billet muffler hanger/footpeg brackets for my BANDIT awhile back and I used some female footpeg mounts I had left over from my Harleys.
They worked ok but I had to machine the width of the mounting boss down on the pegs to fit the Harley mounts which is not going to be very practical as I am planning to possibly start making these up to sell so I needed to come up with a new footpeg mounting bracket that would accept the stock passenger pegs and use the stock detent spring, ball and plate and the pivot pin and c-clip so that the stock rear pegs are a total plug and play affair with my billet brackets.
So I designed up a new set of billet pegs brackets and machined them up yesterday that accept the stock rear pegs and all of the mounting hardware.
I do have a slight problem that I hope someone on the board can help me with, and that is since I had to machine off a little bit of the boss on my footpegs in order for them to fit the Harley brackets I used, I need to get the width of the mounting boss off of a stock rear peg.
So to accomplish this what I need from one of you out there is for you to pull off one of your rear passenger pegs and measure the width of the mounting boss on the end of the peg right next to the pivot pin hole with a micrometer, as I need that dimension so I can finish up the drawing and send it out for a quote.
Also If anyone out there has a pair of rear passenger pegs off of a 07/08 Bandit that they want to sell let me know.
Heres a picture of the new peg mounting bracket and the Harley bracket and spacer at the bottom of the picture that its replacing.
