OK here is the deal, My 04 Sprint is the bike for me butttt due to left knee damage I am unable to bend the knee at the angle position to shift or ride with foot on peg.
I need to move the peg/shifter location forward.
Is there anything out there made for the ST Sprint that might work or should I design and build?
I really do LIKE my bike and would like to keep it.

I have been looking for rearsets for a while for my '00 Sprint RS and I cannot find them anywhere. To be fair, the rearsets I wand are going to have the opposite effect as the ones you are looking for, BUT the good rearsets are adjustable.

If you need to move them forward, I am afraid you may have to have them custom made. This may not be as bad as you anticipate if you can locate a machine shop and just talk to them. You may also want to go to a custom chopper shop and ask, as a lot of custom choppers use one-off parts quite often.

I know rearsets usually run between 100 and 200 bucks, so if a shop could work up a custom set for 200 or 300 bucks, it would almost be worth it. Honestly you would only have to have the bracket made as you could probably buy a longer linkage and you can reuse the pegs and levers that you already have.

Hell, if you get them made, save the design and start selling them.

So far, so good. Larry, (Little Shop) is going to take a look and see if he can help. If there is anyone who I feel can so it will be him. I'll keep all posted. :upthumb:

Simply go to your nearest triumph dealer. They have a set of forward pegs for ya, tho they'll cost you about $8000. Just look for something called "speedmaster".

I have a bad knee, and the Speed 4 is fairly tight between the seat and pegs. What I did was use Buell XB Lightning footpegs. They give about an inch and a quarter more legroom, which made a world of difference. They cost about $30 from the local Harley/Buell dealer, and are high quality. I had to mill them down a bit to fit the stock mounts, and of course, the shifter and brake pedal needed readjusted. For me, moving the pegs forward would have made it worse.

Thanks for another idea. I will use them all if I need to. Keep trying until it works.
