Title: replacing GXSR for front stock pegs
Post by: tripleb on June 04, 2009, 05:54:46 PM
I received my new-to-me set of GXSR pegs from dgyver today and tried to install them on my front brackets.  I am having a hell of a time pulling the clips off so I can remove the stock pegs.  I can't fit one side of a pair of needle nose pliers underneath the clip to pull the clip off the bolt.  Is there some kind of trick to pulling those c-clips off?  I've searched the wiki and the forum and can't find anything.  Help... :dunno_white:

Hey man if you want help on that I'm free all weekend we can get together and do it! Then we could ride  :angel: One excuse to get out and ride!

It took me ten minutes to do the swap out and five of that was getting back up off the ground LOL
