It can take me a while to get stuff through my head. A friend with a Connie told me to grind down the outside of the hinge material on the riders footpegs so they would not break off in a tip over. Well it cost me about $100 but my new RH foot peg has now been ground down and so has the LH side. Both pegs now fold up parallel to their mounting brackets.
I was pulling into a parking stall, grabbed a hand full of front brake and ended up leaning to far over for me to right the bike while straddling it. So I let it down slowly but that was enough on the hard surface to snap the peg and the mounting bracket on the RH side. Lesson learned!
If you have been postponing this mod like me, spend the time so ya don't have ta spend the money.
