No worries mate. You should have a flick through the Wiki there's heaps of good upgrade information in there.
If you can't find it in the wiki you'll certainly find it on the forum somewhere. GSTwin is a great info centre.

I had exactly the same pegs for about a year...
I loved them...
but i was thinking why, why suzuki had put these stock pegs=this mass of rubber and heavy metal on gs?
then i started travelling...
why?why suzuki had put these stock pegs=this mass of rubber and heavy metal on gs?? ---- due to vibrations... :icon_sad:
I believe these ebay pegs are ok if you are not cruising... :embarrassed:
personal opinion :dunno_black:
Do the smaller ones vibrate bad?

In my bike, yes...
I dont't know if my bike if faulty etc but between 5000-6000 rpm and around 7000, if i remember well, they vibrate a lot.... :icon_neutral especially the left peg, right was almost ok.
Maybe my bike needs a good adjustment(carbs, valves...) but after i replaced them with stock pegs, no problem at all. Rubber kills vibrations for sure... :thumb:

But why do they have to be so ugly?... :dunno_black: they need attractive rubber ones... :woohoo:
I just bought these ones,

I wanted rubber lined pegs a bit lower than stock. The mounting point looks like it will need some filing on the corner so they'll fold but they should fit.
I'll let you know what there like when they get here :)
