Title: Will this fit? (Kat pegs)
Post by: pronator on May 08, 2009, 01:39:41 PM
Hi all,

Can't figure out if these Kat pegs will fit. They are of the '88 - '97 variety.

Pantablo's page shows pegs from '86:

Is anyone in the know?

I know for a fact that the rear pegs from a 96 katana will not work without modification of the mounting brackets, cause I tried it today

Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to make sure that these are rider pegs and not passenger pegs...

Don't know about those, but i have a nice set of woodcraft rearsets still in original packaging sitting on my desk at work. I'll gladly trade them for a nice toprack...  ;)

yeah, the rear has a ball and detent setup.  but those pegs dont look like what is on my 96 katana, it's look just like my gs's
