Thruxton Footpeg Relocation...

Gents,
Aside from the option of retrofitting Bonnie mid set foot controls on a Thruxton, is there an aftermarket alternative that moves Thruxton foot controls a bit more forward and lower?
Many Thanks,
George

To make the swap with OE parts you need the frame outriggers, brake pedal, master cylinder, hose, shift lever and pegs. I'm not sure about the Thruxton RH side cover... it may need to be notched at the bottom for the brake rod.

I want to swap my T100 foot controls for Thruxton parts. Anyone interested?

Mike,
I swaped out my standard Bonnie foot controls for a set of Thruxton rearsets. I love it, but you will have some issues with the stock Bonnie exhaust pipes if you have them. The Thrux ones seem to be about an inch or two longer before the bend, and with the bend closer on the stock Bonnie pipes you will not be able to lower the gear shifter all the way without hitting the pipes. It will be just slightly higher then want I consider best placement for the shifter. Aside from the parts you listed already, you will also need the switch and mounting bracket for the rear brake light too. But really a easy job.
