rear foot rests

[reggy5]

hi all

I want to remove my rear foot rests but im unsure on how to mount the cans, has any body done this? are there any pics anywhere?

thanks.

Easy you need some different hangers.

Like these...



Bought these from a fellow member a couple of years ago so no link to a sales site I'm afraid.

However if you want them I'm willing to part with them...

I have these in a box gathering dust

thanks all but I don't want to see the bracket, is this possible or am I just being a turd? lol

You can do it with high levels by anchoring the straps to the subframe. Not sure how you would hide the brackets on low levels though.

I have stubby cans so could the link pipe bracket hold the cans enough

You can't see them at all while riding, so all good there then.
Fixed!

And you only have to clean the clocks and bars, anything in peripheral vision doesn't need more then a wipe with a rag and everything else can stay dirty until the rain stops.

I wouldn't want to rely on just the low link pipe brackets on the footrests! I should think your stubbies would be wobblies quickly followed by gonies and then ferking noisies!!!!!

My Vtr came without rear footrests and just had alloy strip hangers, had been on the bike for 5 years no prob.
