Can you get anything to LOWER the footpegs
 

My friend has a 996 and suffers from a bad leg. Understatement really, he nearly lost the leg when a crane ran over his leg.:o

He is searching for rearsets (or some plates that will lower the footrests a bit) to ease leg pains if possible.

Tried searching for quite a while but he hasn't found a solution yet.

Any ideas please?

You could try these, not cheap but lots of adjustment

If he wants to use the standard footrests and controls etc then it's usually possible to do something with a plate mounted on the original holes in the frame and the footrest hangers mounted lower on the same plate. But if he wants something a bit more special, then I would think someone like Harris or Spondon would produce something based on their standard stuff to the exact spec' needed.

might be worth sending Gary T a u2u.

He only has one leg, due to vehicle interface & has some rather special rearsets on his monster

Bradders has some riser plates that I'm sure could be swapped over to act as lowering ones. Or used as a reference for machining some. It can't be too hard with the right kit.

They did cause a problem with pushing the pegs out away from the brake lever though.

The ones Bradders has are Valtermoto ones that he had off me, I have another new set going for £30, I also have some other unknown Titanium adapters that are intended to raise the footrests without moving them backwards. I would have thought either of these sets or ones similar would allow the pegs to me moved downwards.

Shaun,

This is just another reason to get one of those new fangled bikes, as they have several adjustments available :D

Getting back to the original question though I would imagine it wouldn't be hard to knock something out yourself, or the likes of Harris etc probably do a kit anyways, Skidlids sounds like the best option for £30 though

This is the new Valtermoto ones, still in their packet

Thanks for the info, i'll pass it on to the man wiv the dodgy leg.

Doesn't look like a dodgy leg on the 996 in the Avatar :D
