Nightwing Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Howdy, I have a 2007 RT1200RT. It had these lowered pegs on it when I bought it. I can't find ones just like these for hubby's new RT. I think they are made by MV Motorad? but no one's pictures look like these. These rotate forward and backward, see the radial striations and the little grooved teeth? Anyone know where I can buy another set just like these? Link to comment

marcls Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 You can also get a foot peg lowering kit (and passenger peg lowering kit) from Suburban Machinery in Ohio. http://www.suburban-machinery.com/bmwindex.htm They are very similar to the ones in your picture. Marc Link to comment
Nightwing Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 YEAH!!! that's them! Thanks so much! OMG at the prices though! Link to comment
Nightwing Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 Thanks for the link! I may have to go with those as the price is nearly $100 different between the MV and Suburban Machinery ones. Fortunately I may have a lead on a used pair now. I love this board!! Link to comment
Jim Miller Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Brenda...MV is Monika Verholen of Germany. Awesome products with prices to match. I don't believe anyone over there speaks English though, as it's a real struggle getting answers to questions by e-mail. I have a set of MV passenger peg lowering brackets for the RT if you're interested. And if you don't mind me asking, if you need these things for your RT...how tall are you? Link to comment
EvilTwin Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I'm resurrecting this thread since I have the same question. I searched on "Footpeg Lowering" and found this thread and a few others. From what I can find online there are 4 or more kits to lower the pegs on a 09 vintage R12RT. Suburban for 199 plus whatever they charge for shipping: Wunderlich for 313: Verholen MV for about 250 via Amazon: The Verholen looks interesting in that it can rotate the position of the pegs forward or aft which might be a help. Knight Design for 130: This is a one piece kit with integrated pegs. Cheaper is always better. I like the idea of some adjustability. I have it in the back of my mind that I could fabricate something out of aluminum, its not hard to work with, would just need to source it, probably from Amazon. Link to comment
