Where is a good place to find some race-style billet aluminum footpegs?

I looked for quite awhile to find some aftermarket pegs for a custom Daytona conversion that I was doing. I've come to the conclusion that no companies make any aftermarket pegs for Triumphs.

I finally took the stock T595 footpegs to a store that I knew had a lot of pegs in stock and physically compared pegs until I found some that were nearly identical.

They are the Competition Werkes GP footpegs for the Yamaha YZF600. They fit nearly perfectly, and look great. By nearly perfectly, I mean that they needed a very thin washer between the footpeg and the mounting bracket to take up just a hint of a gap. Also, when I put the footpeg mounting pin through, one side went right in and the other side needed to be 'finessed'. In other words, it needed to be popped with a hammer one time to finish machining the mounting hole in the peg. Once installed, you can't see the washer, they fit good and tight without binding, and they look great!

These pegs are available from a lot of catalog mail order places like Motorcycle Accessory Warehouse, Competition Accessories, etc.
