Thats kinda wierd?? There is some talk about pegs breaking off here. I might take a close look! There shouldnt be a difference between the two! Better safe than sorry!!

I was charging along the motorway at about 80, and there was a huge difference between the vibration from the left and right pegs. It was most noticeable If I lifted my foot off the peg and the placed in back on again.

Had the bike looked over today, but no obvious signs that anything is wrong. Ive booked it in for a longer examination next week - I get to borrow a brand new 08 EFI Scrambler for the morning to compare the two.

Im starting to think it all might be in my imagination, or i'm getting old or my foot vibrates all by itself when its doing 80 mph.
