Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
Good luck, is there a proper thread that your posting updates on rather than there being lots of little ones with support.

Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
 See here http://www.fixer-peg.co.uk/ Davie's smart idea for a get you home gear / brake lever repair after a minor spill breaks off the toe peg. Speedy had hers on for almost 12 months, it's that good. To my mind it's essential bit of kit, along with spare bar levers, cable ties and gaffer tape.

Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
It uses three.
One down the centre to clamp it flat to the lever and two small ones to keep it centrailised. |

Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
Have had one under my pillion seat almost since I bought the bike 2 years ago. Have used it after both my offs and it's paid for itself many times over as a result. It was the difference between getting home or not from Anglesey after my 1st track day and I always keep it with me for when I, or someone else needs it.
Good luck Davie! |

Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
It is designed to fit various levers of different bikes, so the hole that the lever fits into is larger than it needs to be to fit just an SV lever.
If it was to clamp on just the top or the bottom, the toe-peg would be either too high or too low. Make sense? |

Re: Motrax Rip Off Merchants.
