My size 11 boots never quite felt comfortable on the OEM pegs. I ordered up a set of Fastway Pegs from amotostuff.com, and they quickly arrived (thanks Chad).

The install went very easily, and they really provide a much better platform. I can't wait to try these off-road, and I'm sure they'll make standing much easier.

Here's a side by side comparison of the OEM and Fastway:

Here's the OEM peg:

And the installed Fastway:

The install only requires pulling a couple of circlips to remove the stock pegs. You then have to grind about 1 mm off the fastway colar so that it will fit into the peg bracket on the strom. A handy dremel makes quick work of this:

Once the collars are ground down, they slip right back into the stock location using the OEM pins/circlips with the new return springs. I mounted mine in the "lo boy" position that gives a little more leg room than the "standard" fastway position. The last step involves screwing 11 stainless steel pins into each peg. The package said two sizes were provided (8 and 10 mm), but all of mine were one size. Overall, great product, very well built and excellent machining.

That doesn't look comfortable for when I'm riding barefoot. :lol:

They look good. I may have to add them to the list.

Looks nice!

Do you net out any additional space between the front of the footpeg and the shift lever end? I was trying to judge from the marks on your floor (nice work surface) and I am guessing that would be a 'no.'

I really need a longer distance between footpeg and lever end.

ktisdall - I have not really noticed much difference in the spacing to the shifter with the fastway pegs. In the "lowboy" position, the peg is moved about 1/2 inch lower and back from stock, but the increase platform width just about makes this a wash.
