I remember reading a while ago that someone put Buell foot pegs on their Thruxton. I cannot seem to find the thread. Can this be done? I like them better than the stock Triumph pegs -- plus they cost far less than the Triumph pegs.
The reason I ask is I put my bike down, and have to replace the right riders peg. Also, messed up my pipe on the right side and broke the mirror mount (told my wife it is now cheaper to replace the mirrors with bar ends).
NOTE: Wear protective gear, I had my jacket and helmet on, no gloves, just jeans and light shoes, 490lbs+ of bike landing on you is not fun -- this happened a week and a half ago and I can finally walk without a cane. Every place I had the gear on I am not hurt (we wont talk about my pride).
Also, watch out for other drivers -- I was turning and some kids passed me and brained me in the back of the head with a beer bottle -- yes it was intended on their part, they slowed down and waved then drove off. I turned my head instead of following through -- really embarrassing to say so, but that is why I crashed.
