Just curious - mine are off and i can't beleve i didnt do this sooner. only concern is the protection the right side provides for my leg to the exhaust.
nope, that was the sec thing i did when i got the bike....
no need, i dont plan to pick up hookers....and everyone is bigger then me anyway [laugh]
They were removed within 20 mins of picking up the bike from the dealer when I bought the bike.
And with No "Boobies" option on this Poll, This will make this Poll Invalid ;D
Mine came off about two weeks after I brought the bike home..
off for a while now
Off with its head!
agreed off within 10 min of gettting it home
Yes, I still have them on. Wifey would kill me if I took them off as she would have nowhere to place her feet.
thanks. Just can't stomache the way they look with my new exhaust. off they stay.
+1 on the hookers though...that's why I have a station wagon.
The Boss removed mine when the bike came home with a new exhaust - she said they just looked wrong.

the stockers look horrid, but after replacing my rear sets with rizoma (delicious i must say) and taking off the seat cowl, i could see putting some after market passenger pegs on. if you got pics to share, i'd love to see how it looks.
came off before first mile. i remove them on every bike i've ever owned.

Apologies for any confusion
My Monster does not have passenger pegs, my wife removed them
My wife has her own Monster (actually she introduced me) with no passenger pegs and Sato rearsets
Therefore solution to passenger peg problem = SO with their own Monster
Sometimes being a smart arse doesn't help ... sorry [roll]

that is the best option [drink]
Off all the times,unless i plan on picking up hookers then it's on ;D
off.
I have no use for anyone else on that bike but me
I'm considering putting them back on since my son has been asking me to take him out for a ride for a while.
I had them off most of the time. I started getting tired of putting them back on to ride 2 up. I ended up getting them powdercoated black so they really aren't that noticeable anymore. I also look at them as a little extra protection for my exhaust in the event of a tip over.
I don't feel comfortable putting a passenger's life at risk. Took them off a while ago and I like it that way.
Got rid of those suckers a long time ago. When I have the time/$$$ I'm gonna cut off the mounting brackets as well. I hate looking at those things >:(
Would anybody like to sell me their passenger foot pegs off an s2r? I've got a 2005 s2r and my girlfriend has been bugging me like hell to give her a ride, but I can't without the pegs. Someone help me get laid (more). Please?
Thanks,
--Mike
Mine are on. My kids lov to ride on the back on their way to sports on Saturdays. I must say they've become good pillions. I don't think I'd ever want to pillion for an extended ride though!

I've got a pair, but I won't be around them for at least a few weeks. They're off my 06 s2r.
What would a reasonable person expect to pay for a set?
I would ask for $100 shipped. (that's what I offered my set for when I PM'd slipperymike)
Ebay stores usually want around $150 and I have seen them more or less in that range in classifieds on forums.
So $100 including shipping or $100 plus shipping?
I took them off the tricolore as soon as I got it, over here in the UK you have to have pegs on if theres a pillion seat but if the pillion has a cover then the pegs can be removed. The hyper still has the pegs on but they were powder coated black when I first got the bike (to help hide the bloody things,) wish that you could get a cover for the pillion on that bike.
Barb's says I'm enough of a hazard on my own without any body else on the pillion :'(
Hi Carlos, do'es it fit o/k. ;) ;)

Excellent. Thanks Geoff!

Well i got the wife a small starter bike but in 2 years it only got 150 miles put on it and 100 of those were mine. She was never comfortable operating it herself so not much I can do about it. (yes, she did take the MSF course)

Assuming you are in the continental US then that includes shipping. I will let you know though that the brakets and pegs are in near new condition as they were taken off the bike with very few miles on them. The heel guards are in great shape as well but are painted black. Not everones cup of tea but I suppose the paint could always be stripped off.
I removed one peg in a lowslide. If any wants to get rid of theirs let me know.
I usually keep mine off. It only takes like two min. per side to re-install them. If my daughter wants to go for a ride I put em back on.

I took mine off when I changed the exhaust from the stock shotguns to the ExBox and haven't put them back on... Not sure how well it'd work anyway w/o the exhaust for stability... hmmm...
Duck Stew spent all this time on my bike making hidden passenger peg brackets, getting the Supersport rearsets to fit and then figuring out the perfect exhaust angle that wouldn't otherwise fry my passenger's legs. With all that time and energy, I think I've used the passenger pegs three times.
Sorry, Stew. :P

Marvel......pegs will work fine but they look funny because the right one is wider & shorter to clear the OEM cans......probalby feels funny to whoever is riding cupcake as well because their right leg is out further than their left one.
