Hey!

Slowly but surely my footpeg rubber is disappearing and it looks ****e!

Any ideas what footpegs to replace it with?

Also my gear shift rubber is ****e and got a replacement but can't figure out how to get old bit off and and new bit on.. Any ideas?

Replace your footpegs with GSXR ones - simply take all the rubber off them, and hey presto!

or you could get a blow lamp and burn the remaining rubber off, buff 'em up and hey presto free gsxr pegs.

Yeah I took a stanley and some pliers to mine, stopped me slipping off em so much in the wet

Oberon foot pegs are nice

Hmmm, think I will burn the rubber off or cut it like you say.

Whats the best way?

Dave20046 · 11-03-10, 07:19 PM

probably burning if you don't mind the smell (and maybe mess) I did 10 mins with the knife though (one was a bugger the other came off in a minute)

Okay cool, does the rubber completely come off for a clean look?

Dave20046 · 13-03-10, 06:22 PM

Probably best burning if that's your thinking.

I've got a burning knife for soldering gun so I might try that first...
