I paid $300 for my tarozzis and couldn't be happier. You can also buy each individual part for them also, I got mine from fast from the past. You can also get them folding or fixed, knurled or rubber coated. The shifter and brake heights are also completely adjustable. They also bolted right on no adapters, no messing around.

Cool - I'll probably go with the Tarozzi's eventually. But for now I just want to get on the track and the more I have to spend the longer it will take. Thanks Andy!

Stay away from Raask! They used to be of excellent quality back in the '70s and '80s, but the #ยค%& I got for my Thunderbird was some horrible crude stuff that also wear much too rapidly. Over the rough cast parts were sprayed a thick coat of ugly silver paint - even the footpegs. Imagine how long that looked good :pinch: Not that it looked good new, either...

Thanks - I had seen other complaints elsewhere about them as well. Good to know it wasn't isolated.

Hi DD,
I made my own using RGV250 pegs and master cylinder. In the old days they used to
reverse the stock pegs and from this is were i got my measurements. I used 10mm
alluminum plate, I had to file the flats in the plate to take the pegs so they don't
turn over.
Went for a ride around Phillip Island. Coming out of Sibera :woohoo: :woohoo:
And onto the main straight. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Awesome! Thanks, that was what I was looking for.
By the way, how does the clear clutch cover stay so clean?
Sweet looking bike!

Thanks Guys, I don't take any extra precautions around the cover no more than if
it was polished. With the inside, that's what it's supose to look like, I did buff up
the bascket with the ol' trusty wire wheel. The only problem with it is when you put
new oil in it then condensation turns it milky but after a little while it evaporates.

Harvey, are there more photos of your bike online somewhere?
How are your oil cooler lines routed?
