Jeff, I'm wondering if you have the Dual Star bash plate too. The stock shifter hits the bash plate mount when I try to rotate it, so I tried the IMS shifter. The IMS did the same thing until I ground it to fit around the mount, but it's not quite enough. Does the Dual Star shifter clear the frame and bash plate mount; does it fit within the indentation in the tranny cover like the stock unit? Dave

Great point Dave. I'd never even thought about that. I've had great luck with the Moose skid plate; impeding shifting or rear brake action has never been a concern...which is obviously something to consider when fitting footpegs.

Dave, I do have a Dual Star skid plate with the Dual Star shifter and the DR650 footpegs. They all fit well and work well together on my bike. The end of the Dual Star shifter has the neat little plate to help prevent the shifter from puncturing the case when you go down on the left side. It does move along the radiused indentation on the case. I seem to recall a friend of mine had a problem with the Dual Star shifter in that it was hitting his case. But that was 1 1/2 years ago and I don't think I got involved in the repair. I just seem to remember he had an issue. Best, Jeff

I installed the footpegs from the DR650, and they seem the same height as the stockers. No problems shifting. Chris ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "sethshaun" Date: Tue, 01 Nov 2005 04:04:39 -0000

I'd have to concur with Chris, I love my DR650 foot pegs. I've had them on now for about 2 months, and wonder why it took me so long to buy a set. I even gave a pair to a friend of mine. HtH, Denis

<><><><><><><> <><><><><><><> Jamie, Funny you should bring this up today. This morning I ordered a pair of the wide DR650SE footpegs that RevMaaatin recently posted about. I'm gonna use them in an experiment to see if I can make them pivot and change the location of the pegs in relation to where the stock pegs are placed. I've talked to a few folks recently that were interested in pivoting pegs but weren't interested in spending about $150 for a pair. I think you may be remembering Pivot Pegz but the last time I checked maybe a month ago they weren't available for the KLR.

I have a set of PivotPegs on my 06. I was hesitant when I ordered them over the cost, but now I wouln't own a motorcycle without them. It felt pretty weird for the first 4 or 5 miles having the pegs rotate when I moved, but once I got used to the sensation I would never go back to stock pegs. I think they are a wonderful idea and a wonderful improvement. The upside is you will feel much more connected to the motorcycle, especially when off-road. The downside is the cost and that you now have one more pivot point to clean and grease during maintenance, but the benefits definitely outweight the costs.

It's under that rectangular black plastic cover down on the left, above where the sidestand interlock lives. You can reach down there without leaving your seat and give the solenoid a finger wave that will reestablish contact and the bike will start. For a more permanent fix, pull the solenoid out of its rubber mount so you can get at the main terminals and the trigger terminal.
