Compression of the footpeg rubber does that task. > Filling it with any material could prevent that action. Pouring lead in the tube will not interfere at all with footpeg folding, or anything else.

However as I've always tried lots of things, many off the wall, maybe melting lead would be a good solution. I'd like to see a photo when it's done.

I am going to try heavier footpegs to see if that will help. I am interested in the Highway Hawk comfort pegs but can't seem to find a seller in the U.S. Bikercom.com has them but I have to pay shipping from Europe. Anyone know where to get them in the U.S.?

If you look in the topic "How long do shocks usually last"...which may be on a tangent...you'll see a picture with my Highway Hawk pegs.

I think that I may have gotten them from Europe though. At the time I was crazed, had to have them, couldn't live without them, and just plain didn't look at the shipping cost anymore than I had to. I just wanted them Shocked

I did purchase the Highway Hawks from a company out of Europe. They definitely helped dampen the right side vibration. I can still feel it but it is much better. For additional details see the topic Footpeg Options.

Sorry... went retro and Austin Powers on Ya.

I know it's not "buzzing" but maybe the same solution will work for it too. I was having trouble with the air flow around the right side. It seemed that at highway speeds the air would try to push my foot off the peg. I put a fork bag on the crash bars and that cleared it right up. Air flow around both sides seems to be the same now.

Since then it has dropped off a lot but it may be sheer coincidence.
