Title: These pegs any good?

I'm thinking these would give some adjustability with the speedymoto top triple and woodcraft 2.5" clipons. It would give me a way to tune my riding position without having to spend $800 on rearsets. Anyone have these?

Quite a few members have tried similar systems.
I think they do their job well, but they can push your feet out a little (depending on position they're in), the distance to the gear/brake toe peg may change and the height can also change. Just things to consider.

I had a similar set-up on my 848, and I thought they were great.  [thumbsup] Fully adjustable rearsets are nice...but they are pricey, and these are a good compromise.

All true but the changes are reasonable. I could definitly feel the width but it only took a ride down the block to get used to it. I have mine (similar madel) aimed back & down a click and no problem with distance to the shift/ brake levers.
Money well spent, I think. I'll probably put them on my SS, too.

I have Hong Kong copies of those peg's....got them to try & figured I would upgrade to SSR's if I liked them, and I do.
But my copies are working great for $45 delivered... [thumbsup] [beer]

I bought the hong kong copies as well and find they flexed to a degree that left me too afraid to actually ride with them.

Pitbull
I didn't have a flexing issue....but I did have have to put a shim in the bracket to get the pegs to horizontal...without the shim they did hang
towards the ground a little.
But soon as these need replacing I will go with a more reputable manufacturer.

everything black anodised that i have from ssr went purple within 2 months. bike is always garaged unless im riding it and has MPL, Rizoma and IMA black anodised parts that are perfect black even now 12months after i rebuilt the bike. so if i was getting these pegs, id go for the silver  ;)
