Foot peg upgrades?

Anyone upgrade their footpegs? Is it possible to just swap out the FJ footpegs or would I need to customize to fit the FJ mount with the Mickey Mouse ears?

Just not a fan of the old school rubber begs with that little spike on the bottom would like something simple like a metal knurled peg.

I'm 6'3" with a 34" inseam so I went with lower Buell pegs to give my aging knees less of a bend, more comfort. I was pleasantly surprised that the additional 1.5" lower pegs made such a difference on long rides.
You see  I used the oem FJ mounts for the Buell pegs. I also used the 91-95 FJ washers for superior vibration isolation. Unfortunately there is no return spring on these pegs.







Aviation Fred also has some experience with aftermarket pegs.

Got your ears on Fred?

That looks nice and I'm a bit taller so might like that too
