• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Peg options

I bought a set of fastway pegs (think they were evolution 3) and they fit on the spindle but will not fold back at all in the lowboy position. I really need wider pegs than stock and preferably ones which will take them a little lower and a little back. I haven't posted enough to be able to PM Husky666 to get his plates, but I could really do know from someone who knows more than me exactly what pegs would do the job. I don't want pivot pegz though, just something wider and hopefully a little lower. Any suggestions which will definitely fit and fold back in the normal way?
 
Husky666 - I replied to your pm but I don't know whether it got through due to my lack of post count. Not sure at what number of posts pm's are turned on but my email address is studiomw at mac dot com

I am using the Fastway pegs in the low position. I did have to do a little grinding (left side on the frame I think) to allow them to fold back. It wasn't a big deal.
 
When i worked at Fastway 10 years ago I said we needed to change the rear part to the 45 degree angle to facilitate them folding back. You would loose no functionality. Investment cash molds are expensive to modify.

- they are (or at least were) 17-4 investment cash stainless steel if you wanted to have a welder modify them, would not be a huge deal. Knock the corner off and weld an angled part in.
 
Cheers guys. Seems like it's taking a long time for a moderator to approve my replies. Not even sure why there has to be moderator approval really, it's frustrating. Might try the modification as you both suggested.
 
Actually I think the peg bracket itself needs modding more than the peg (right side of bike anyway)
 
I put Fastway's (Evo 3) on my '09 610 yesterday... weird, the right one in the Lo-boy position won't fold, but the left one does. I haven't ridden them yet, but I like the size. Looks like the right footpeg bracket is just shaped different than the left one; I guess it could be cut/ground down, but I don't want to weaken it.

Grind away. You'll be fine.
 
Hi mike , I fitted pegs from 449 on my and used Ktm springs and have had no issues with them quite a superb cheap fix

How are you getting on with the bike ?
 
Hi Eggs, cheers for that. Getting on great apart form the super soft stock spring. Moly is sorting me out a new shock and spring from Wilburs, and a pipe and can to ditch the heavy stock setup.
 
Does anyone have Huksy666 email address they wouldnt mind sending to me via PM? He has sent me a PM and I've replied but it's not going through because I dont have the post count for sending PMs but I can read them. Many thanks.

I like that, I wouldn't mind having some shorter pegs up a bit higher for more clearance and better angle on the rear brake. I'm already 1/3 through my new sliders... :D

May get some of these or some 510 pegs...
 
i put fastway peg on mine. i had to round off the square corner on the right side mount with a grinder but otherwise a very easy fit.

great pegs. i love them.

Pivot pegz. They fold up in low position. It takes a bit to get them up when new, but once the go up a few times and make a groove for the spring it's no problem
 
Yes, stainless, 60mm or whatever the biggest ones are and most but not least, they pivot. It feels funny to ride a bike with standard pegs now. I love them!
