The rear pillion pegs on my new GS1250 are sqidgy ,small and slippery even dry.
Does anyone know of a better replacement?

I do feel for the money a BMW should come with better!!
 
Are they the standard ones that come with the bike? The ones on my 1250 are reasonably substantial, definitely not squidgy, nor are the rubber parts slippery. They are exactly the same as the ones on my previous 1200, and my wife has no complaints about them.
 
Used

They have been used a lot in the last 7500 miles including a days treasure hunt (on and off the bike about 35 times. As well as several weeks touring. She is also tall so heavier than some.
 
I fitted the extenders following complains of "pain in the hips" and after a period of adjustment the Blessed Margaret did agree that it was more comfortable with a slightly longer leg length.
It is possible that a better leg length might meet with approval, the slightly lower height aiding mount/dismount?
