Someone posted about getting footpegs for a suzuki dr650 and using them on the KLR...Does anyone have part numbers for the pegs and springs? Also any place online that you can buy them? Thanks!

I was looking at purchasing some DR650 pegs to replace the slippery rubber pegs. Does anyone know if they are the same length as the factory pegs? I looked at some pegs off a KLR 250 and they are too short. Just wondering if anyone knew before I ordered them from Ron Ayers. I was kind of leaning towards the DR650 pegs over the IMS due to the thinner design and hopefully making it a little easier to get my toes to the shift lever. Opinions? Thanks, Mike

They work fine and much better than the OEMs when wet and the going gets rough. Take your time fitting the springs and it will become obvious how they go in. The OEM pegs are not as long as they look especially after the rubber ends crack off. --Jim A-15

Running 50/50ish tires at indicated 85 mph on California gas, rejetted, Pro Duro exhaust and no windscreen. Getting low 40s per US gallon. Still think I'm running rich, but zeroing in on it... -pm
