Anyone use aftermarket rear foot pegs that'll work on a gs500f?

i've bought the GSX-R LP aluminum rider pegs and after a few minutes of dremelling, they work perfectly....now i need rear ones.

Look on pantablo's website.  http://pantablo500.tripod.com/
He has a tutorial on how to mount rear passenger sets off a GSXR.  I bought some off an '02 and an '04, and am using the pegs off one of them for the front pegs.  I havn't received the '02 set yet(slow shipping ebay seller) but I'm pretty sure they are the same. :thumb:

Lockheart makes a set that will fit the front and rear(I use them on the front right now).  They will not fold up, but they fit without trouble and work to give you a little space if you really lean into corners(for the front pegs).  I cannot remember the part number, but I trial fitted them at one of my local shops to see if they would fit, and it required no grinding or other modifications.

You will more then likely have to bit the bullet and just buy some and see if they work, I was going to just try and buy some and hope they fit but havent gotten to it yet.

That are no GSXR style pegs that I know of that will fit in the rear passenger sets without a little work.

If you put on GSXR pegs you will notice that they will fall below horizontial because there is nothing behind them to support them, as opposed to the fronts.  I suggest that you drill a hole in the back of each peg and tap it for a bolt or screw so there is something back there to keep it level.  Use threadlocker and adjust the screw either in or out until the peg sits at the desired level.

Another option that I think might work better is to drill and tap the hole into the bracket itself, below the peg, that way when you flip the peg up there won't be a screw sticking out of the end of it.

To keep the pegs from rattling around and to keep them up you can use either a neoprene-backed galvanized washer or just a rubber washer.
