Scrambler dirt pegs

With all the good info on this board and others, I've started to tailor my Scrambler to my needs. From a thread over at Adventure Rider I did the Suzuki RM125 footpeg conversion to my Scrambler. A little work with a Dremel tool and a bolt added as a shim, and voila! Although they're smaller than the stock rubber pegs, the teeth mesh with the tread on the bottom of by boots and hold like velcro.

Hehe,
I wonder if the pics on Adv rider were mine.
Your right. They are a bit short. (nothing that a welder and a bit of flat bar won't fix.
But alot more confidence building in wet, muddy conditions.

Thumbs up Great Work

Very nice neat work.

I used what was available locally and sit a tad high.


I have been in touch with pivot-pegz but they are concentrating on the larger manufacturers with more focused off-road bikes like KTMs, Husqies etc.
I use them on my GS12 and they make all the difference.

If enough of us badger them maybe they will get around to making them for the Scrambler.

Good stuff Bikebits - lets see some pix of your bike in action.
Thanks for sharing.
