Alternative pillion foot pegs for a normal human-sized passenger!
« on: 16 April 2023, 08:16:45 pm »
Hi guys, wondering if anyone knows of adjustable/replacement pillion pegs for the FZS1000? My other half finds the pegs too close and it hurts her knees, says they could do with being lower and further forward. We're going on a week-long bike tour at the end of the month and I don't want her to be uncomfortable. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi Newbie  :finger
Can't move the rear pegs mate look where exhaust mounts, it's obviously not possible ...
You ideally need a proper touring bike like Pan European or similar if the Mrs can't tolerate the riding position, I bought a Goldwing for this very purpose, Fazer 1000 pillion perch is a back/hip/knee/ankle torture device.

I believe people have fabricated extension brackets that allow you to move the pegs down and forward.

Maybe you can do something like that?
