Still don't understand stock footpeg

[Kid Thunder]

Great pictures but I still don't understand how the stock footpegs can be lowered. There are no threads in the bracket on those 5 holes. Do I use a nut & bolt?

Gotta be a stud that attaches the foot peg to the rearset. So I'm gonna guess there is a nut and probably a washer.

I'm fairly certain the stock folder's are not movable because of the way they mount, but a solid peg can be used in any of the holes.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

I believe the stock pegs can be unscrewed from the folding mechanism and then used as solid-mount pegs in any of the provided holes.

As far as I can see there is no way to mount the peg that is removed from the folder as there is no hole or stud on the back of the peg. I guess you could use an aftermarket straight peg that mounts with a bolt on the rear of it. I have 2 different types for my Tuono. One is solid mounted & the other has a spring inside the peg so it can be folded. That's what I have on my Tuono now. I'll see if I can find a picture of it from ebay.

Here they are. They also come in straight, not folding, peg.

How is the quality of those ebay folders?

Well, they will probably keep your feet off the ground. I'll let someone else volunteer to buy a pair and stand up on them at speed.

That was my point. The ads I had seen looked like they weren't made well, but you never know. Kid Thunder has them on another bike so we'll see what his reviews are...

They work well. Some are better than others. I had one set that wasn't great but all the others I have bought were fine. They are on the short side, not as long as the stock pegs. Also I stand corrected. The stock pegs are unboltable so they will help in a crash because they are longer.
