I'm on the fence about selling my polished drop pegs and getting some black ones, or just having mine hard anodized with some other parts I'm doing.

Doesn't the polishing make the tops of those large tread blocks slick?
Mine were polished when I got them, but they have an interesting diamond pattern in the tops. I am positive they are Knight Designs, but not sure if they are an older design or modified version of a current design, since Knight doesn't offer polished pegs or a similar pattern. They do have models with the same 3 holes as mine though. But they aren't as slippery as one would expect. I don't recall ever slipping on them in 600 or so miles now with them.

As it turns out, I forgot a batch of parts I'm having made are being black hard anodized. So I'll just have the pegs and whole rearsets anodized at the same time since it's a bulk price. SCORE, easy enough.

KT- How did you mount the EBay Universal pegs on the SX? Seems the holes in the rearset mounting plate are very large for an 8mm mounting bolt that all the universal pegs seem to have. Any pictures?
I have one broken peg and looking for alternative solutions before I go the Knight Designs route.

Just ordered my set from knight designs. They have 11 sets left.
I bought a set from LAP off EBay in June.

I have a pair of black Knight design drop pegs for a 1125CR. I can check them on my 1190SX if you like? It would be good to know before I post them up for sale.
