Chewed up boots

[Mark Hooton]

Guys, as good as the OEM R1200GSA footpegs are they do chew the bottom of my boots up.

Bearing in mind I rarely stray from the Starbucks car park I don’t really need all the grip the footpegs afford soooo, tadaaaaah, I’ve made my own!

They fit with a positive ‘push fit’ and are held in place by two hidden tie wraps (cunning, me, like a fox).

Tbh compared to the (massively expensive) W/Lich ones I don’t think they are as good as they are made from tough ABS and not rubber but at a fraction of the cost they aren’t bad!

Great job, Mark

Are you going to market these?

Yes, here’s the (marketed) insert for the F800 Adv. just waiting on Dave Grainger (the star he is) to bring his 1250 GSA down so I can make any adjustments needed.

Look really good. I will be having some of those for my 1250 Rallye.

Thanks fella! Once we’ve checked that they fit (or adjusted the design) you can happily purchase some - would be pleased with your review too!

I must confess that young Aaron has done most of the work here as I look to share the burden and bring the lads on! Nevertheless thanks for your kind words.

I had the Same. I bought the BMW Billet foot rests. Expensive but wow they are good. The rubber pushes down into the peg when you stand up....
