Packman YaBB Newbies Offline idontknowshi+ Posts: 20 CLE	how do i fix my peg? 04/14/17 at 06:12:48 So I rode to work yesterday and all was good. Well when i left i put my feet up and the right peg went down. I dont know what the hell happened while i was working... So what exactly do I need to do to fix this? New peg? something else? bolt? is there a cheap fix?

Did you buy the bike used? I wonder if the PO used an opposite side peg and mounted it there as a replacement and wedged it with something to stop it from springing down (instead of up if installed in the right place). Not sure of this is feasible based on let side right side design as I think the top side would then be the bottom and it would be obvious....unless someone got real creative.

Just a thought. If you pull UP on it does it stop perfectly horizontal or does it come up further, say 20 degrees or so like the other side?

There's a part of the metal that is bent i'm gonna upload a better picture. I feel like its rigged up like the rest of the bike. Right rear peg is missing but this bike was dropped on its right side by the previous owner. bottom top

I have a complete set of front pegs that are nice and I think I might also have what you need to fix it on the cheap (but maybe not as nice). I'm on the southeast side of Cleveland if you are interested.

Reply #4 - 04/14/17 at 06:53:55 The steel inner part of the pegs is the same for both sides. Take out the pivot bolt on both sides and compare the ends of the inner steel pieces, you will see what is wrong. Don't lose the little steel/rubber stopper thinges.

Reply #5 - 04/14/17 at 07:09:37 Unless I miss my guess the PO took the rear peg (also damaged) and moved it to the front ,I can tell because it's short and the rubber has raised edges on the top at both ends.(you need a new front and rear pegs).

Reply #8 - 04/14/17 at 21:43:39 If you have a left rear peg ,it should work as well as the one you have now ,just move it to replace as the rear pegs are the same.you may have to squeeze the bracket together to better align the mounting bolt.(and hope it isn't cross threaded)
