Title: Left foot-peg slightly bent... Post by Dave Sisk on 05/09/12 at 15:45:22 I dropped it the first week I had it trying to do a slow U-turn on my neighborhood road (wheels went off the asphalt, about a 2" dip to the grass...you can picture the rest  :-X). I bent the left foot peg a little (shifter is fine).  I started to try to straighten it, but I'm not sure what's under the rubber cover, and I'd rather leave it bent for a while than break it off.   It *looks like* the peg is built into the shifter pedal assembly (it is spring-loaded with a pin, but I don't see a way to unscrew the pin).  Am I missing something here?  And is the peg a universal kind of part, or something I have to specifically order from Suzuki?  It's a 2005 S40. Cheers, Dave

Put it in the vise, put a cheater pipe on the handle and go for it. Peg itself is a bit of an oddball. Suzuki only, HD and the other metrics won't fit. Bike Bandit beats stealership on the price.
