polished heel plates

[500rider]

I just happened to see these on eBay.  I have nothing to do with selling these parts I just thought someone may be interested.  They look pretty cool and reasonable price too.  Just that they are in the UK.

Those look sweet.

Srinath.....  If you make them, we will buy....

Eh, I doubt they're worth all that money. They don't look to be all that special, and I'd question the quality of build.

$50 isn't bad at all if what's in the photo is what he's selling.

Everything is simple, straightforward, and clear-cut until you're the one making it.

I just think they look nice and I would buy a set if they didn't have to ship from around the world.

a NEWBIE here again....
Probably a dumb question but please understand a newbie trying to learn here. What is that for? and how do you use it? looks nice..

[Alphamazing]

By your footpegs there are heel guards to keep your heels from messing around inside the frame or touching hot stuff. They keep your feet flat against the body when you're on the balls of your feet doing cornering, or something like that. Those are just pretty replacements.

They do look nice but....

for that much $$ why not do it yourself with some sandpaper, polishing compound and a bench grinder?

to each his own

So, how do you install this? Is it easy to do so? Just screw on or have to do some body work to do that?
Thanks for your information guys.

I love this GStwin forum , Im learning so much as a newbie already.

Just remove a couple of screws and install.

ya their 4 black painted bolts size 10mm socket that sit just above the foot pegs and then off to your left [looking at that side of the bike]





don't ask how I memorized the bolt/socket size
