Or whatever they are called....lol
There is a threaded hole under each foot peg on the KLR to screw them
in......where can I get them?
I did 1380 miles in the North GA mountains this weekend.......I can
tell you....if you ride agressive in the twisties...you can drag a
peg in the corners.....when you touch a peg, that is a little low for
my taste.....where can I pick up a set of road feelers...I just want
to be able to feel when it touch a little sooner.....I wore the
rubber covering off the end of both foot pegs this weekend.
Thanx in advance
Jeff

Get them from a road bike of some kind.
I used some well-worn ones from my Honda CBX750FE and they screwed
straight in.
Visit your favourite wrecker with a 10mm ring spanner or a vice-grip
and it should not take long to find something useful.
The vice-grips comes in handy if you want some pre-scraped hero bolts
and the hex is worn off.

Thanks,

Mine is. After 80,000km it was still shifting fine (the last time
I rode the bike, at least).
