Yep, the footpegs are about as grippy as a teflon coated frying pan, especially when wet and not that great in the dry either, especially when you are cranked over and trying to put some leverage through them. I think the only option is go to for a set of full rearsets but its difficult to justify spending yet more money on the bike at the moment although they would be handy for Brands GP on the 16th Aug..

I have changed my approach to lowering the sidestand as I was finding it difficult so now I put my foot behind the footpeg and put my foot on the end of the sidestand rather than trying to approach it from the side. This seems to make it a bit easier.


Hi just collected my bike recently, but had a set of rizoma pegs fitted which are a massive improvement (part no.pe614a) I think the a is just for the colour silver. but nothing else needed changing , just the actual pegs (£48). I'll send in a phot.
