    Do you have footpeg envy? :D I took the right one off as there is enough room to put both feet on this one ha ha ha. Crazy big. I'm decking my TE511 out to be a DS / Adventure rig. Another cool ZipTy item...

    The first time I saw those I thought no way am I sticking those on my bike. Then I said wth, I'll try it. I was impressed that even with my thick Sidi boots, my feet felt better, less tired. And yes they are billet so they can take quite a few hits from rocks and other nasties. Use oil when drilling, I used maxilube. I clamped mine on with vice grips and marked the holes with the drill making a slight dimple.

    I think you need a shifter tip from us, yours is looking a little worn.

    didn't I see a zipty promo that had a free IMS tank and seat with the purchase of a shifter tip? :)

    On my hog I never use the heel shifter. I figure I always have a spare if the tip falls off the front shifter.

    The extra shifter is for when you are riding the bike backwards, silly.

    My Dad had to have his left ankle fused solid due to a broken bone from his youth not healing well. He said that heel toe shifter was a life saver to keep riding. That was on his Honda Dream...now I have that bike. Because ya know....ya meet the nicest people on a Honda. ;)

    i had those peg extensions you got kelly a few years ago on my 300. awesome platform & comfortable but not real good in the nasty stuff(too wide & get hammered by rocks/stumps etc.). not designed for that i realise but were worth a try. for DS theyd be perfect. second the oil for drilling, snapped a few bits installing them bad boys!
