Shifter peg - Cut or cover?

[Nico]

I have Kuryakyn all around on my Valk, Iso-wings for driver, Dually pegs for passenger anf cruiser pegs, even cover for brake pedal. The only peg that still looks like ass is the shift peg. I have seen some options in the Dennis Kirk catalog that I am thinking of adapting for the shifter peg.

Either a piece that is threaded where I would cut and grind off the peg, drill the stem and attach the peg.

Or

Kury cover pieces that I could use to cover the existing peg. Might need to be ground down, or ground and possibly need to fill any spaces (JB Weld?)

Anyone done this? Any suggestions? Any pictures of your creations?

Thanks,

Nico

I cut off my peg and ground down the leftover weld. Then drilled the mount and installed a Kury Pilot shift peg. I also have Pilot highway pegs but chose the pilot because it's narrow. It helped get my boot under the peg.

Lot of folks have bad-mouthed the Kury shift peg cover (part # 8851), but it complements the other kury pegs on your bike--it just needs to be fitted. I got it to fit securely by using JB weld putty (available in any auto parts store next to the regular JB weld), molding it around the bare shift peg stem (rubber removed in one piece and saved--like I'm gonna use it again!  ), then working the Kury peg cover onto the stem and letting it set overnight. Be sure to get it in the position you want--orienting the rubber pads, allowing enough play with the kickshifter, etc., 'cause it's permanent.

I drilled and tapped mine, about the same as the bigbf instructions.

On several Valks I have drilled the arm after grinding off the stock peg.  I then paid a rare visit to the
local Hardley store who has a wide variety of shifter pegs to chose from.  Each of these have the standard stud and nut that will lock up to the shifter peg.   Also much cheaper then Kury.

If you damage yours in any modification attempts, let me know. I have one I'm not using, could never get it "right".

So, if you have to take off the kickshifter, you also have take off the shifter peg arm!?  ???  Not sure I would like that "permanent" type setup. Does look good though.

I design this for my bike to work with the Rattlebars kickshift setup. I think the Rattelbars kickshift is about the best one out there. It kinda floats on the exsisting shift peg stem and works very well.
