i got aftermarket footpegs for my bike and the back pegs dont fit. the front installed no problem but the back pegs arent even close to going in. i can get the pin in but the pegs wont go down. i have been grinding them down so they will fit. did anyone else have this problem or did i get the wrong ones or something?

 

First of all, make sure the back pegs are not really the front pegs. but if you are using the correct peg, make sure the little plate and ball bearing is lined up properly. Otherwise, you'll only be able to swing the pegs one way and not back. You shouldnt have to grind anything down.

 

yea they are the correct ones. what ball bearings? mine just have a pin that goes through with a cotter pin on the bottom.

 

Maybe someone is trying to tell you, to not have a passenger...when you wreck your motorcycle!
HAHA

 

the cops wont let the chicks ride on my lap lol well not on the bike while its moving

 

had the same problem just last week..I took a hammer and lightly beated them down..they went down no problems then..just need alil force

 

thats my next plan lol i plan to leave them down all the time anyway.

 

yea it worked fine..But after i got them down..it must of freed them up or something becuz now they go up and down no problem..just use a hammer...
