Lucky the rear set isn't bent when I had a look today just the footpeg sheerered off. Does any one know if a differnt footpeg can fitted or will I need another original firestorm peg?

You can get the knurled aluminium ones, but often people go back to standard, because of the increase in vibration.

They come in pretty anodised colours, too, for that retro eighties look.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
