Hey guys, I have a couple of questions that you all may be able to help me with. First off, will a set of X1 Millenium Alum pegs mount directly to my 2000 M2 or will i need to purchase springs, etc. Second, I've been looking into getting a more aggressive stance on the M2. I was wondering if the peg/controls relocation kits are worth $400+ buy it now price on ebay?? Seems pretty steep.. Are there any other possible alternatives or good products out there? Also if I go with the peg relocation i'll probably spring for a set of race bars. What do you all think? Thanks! | ||

I'd trust the quality of what Al at American Sport Bike sells more than ebay parts. Plus he'll be there if you need replacement parts later on. | ||

You should also know that the handling will be transformed more than you can imagine. The rubber Sportster pegs that come stock on my S1W were great for hiding what the chassis is doing under your feet. Rocket | ||

The Mellnium pegs will bolt right on. I've go them to my 2000 M2 and bothtof the S2's in the garage. The stock pegs springs fit perfect. For the price, they are hard to beat. However, be aware that the Mellinum pegs are currently obsolete. They can however still be ordered through your dealer, they get them from an outfit whose name currently escapes me. It's a place that HD sdumps their old parts. Or so I was told... Brad Brad | ||

 Did you think to shop the Buell Basement where we stock a myriad (that's a plethora in a tuxedo) of Buell footpegs.....Nooooooooooooooooooooo. You know the drill.....you can't buy'em...you have to beg. | ||
| Soslo2 |
so can anyone give me a better clue as to where to find the Millenium pegs if my dealer won't be able to get them for me? | ||

Henrik: Just don't go pick 'em up in person for a while. Court's got a new toy and he needs some fresh skin to try it out on... rt | ||

if all else fail, chew some pegs outa aluminum -- see Rocket's post for benefits -- sez right as rain   | ||

also, if you can score some old stock -- either S2 or S3 scoots had a accessory peg that was meant to lower it's height for touring -- strangley enough, ,they could be flipped 180 degrees and side to side, and raised the pegs an equal amount (no more than an inch in either direction, if memory serves) if you're scraping your MaDeuce pegs regular like, I've got two words for ya "track day" | ||

Bomber, I've been trying to find a set of the S2 touring lowerers. No luck. I have a set on my S2, my son would like a set for his. Brad | ||
| Henrik |
Are those not available through the factory? Henrik | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Not any more Henrik. At least last time I checked. I got my current set from a local dealer that had them sitting around for years. Brad | ||
| Road_thing |
Uh, Brad---you are aware that Bomber has a nice old mill in the Entropy Lab, right? And you do have a set that you could pull measurements off of, n'est-ce pas? Are you catching my drift here? rt | ||
| Bomber |
Brad -- drop me a PM, bud -- the old arn in the Entropy Lab is presently not occupied with other work that I'm despartely afraid to knock down for fear of never replicating the setup agian, ya know? | ||
| Bomber |
Brad -- drop me a PM, bud -- the old arn in the Entropy Lab is presently not occupied with other work that I'm despartely afraid to knock down for fear of never replicating the setup again, ya know? not an offer for a for-profit adventure, btw ;-} | ||
| Road_thing |
Another handsome offer! Who is this Bomber guy, anyway? I'd like to buy him a beer!  OK, I'd like to buy him another beer! rt | ||
| Henrik |
I have one of those "T" footpeg brackets sitting in a box - can't remember which side. Got it along with a side plate I bought recently. I'd be happy to send it out to Bomber for review/re-make. Henrik | ||
| Bomber |
to quote the incredibly accurate ad campaign for Red Stripe "HOORAY, BEER!" | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Henrik, That would be fabulous! I would have to take mine off and send them. I'd be afraid of messing up on a measurement. If need be, I'll do it in a heart beat. Tom, Damn fine looking pub in that picture. Where is it? Brad | ||
| Henrik |
Bomber; PM me your address and I'll send that brackety-hicky out to you. Henrik | ||

Brad: Seibken's (sp?) in Elkhart, Wisconsin, about 2 months ago... ...I'm surprised we didn't see you there! rt | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Damn Tom, must hae missed that outing... Or was I there?????  | ||
| Road_thing |
You might have been lying in the sawdust on the bar-room floor... That picture was taking Saturday afternoon at this year's Homecoming, after we left Road America and right before we did our excellent rendition of two middle-aged guys trying to push-start a dead motorcycle. Which was followed by the well-documented episode of two guys in matching jackets pulling into a parking lot on a single motorcycle, right before a low-rider el Camino put on an impromptu fireworks display. I know you were there for that little fandango! rt | ||
| Bomber |
sweet dreams are made of this . . . . . . ;-} | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Wheew! I was hoping I wan't there. That would have been a big chunk to miss.. The fireworks were fun weren't they? The comment "Damn, I gott get out a here, I've got warrants." when the sirens started made the entire evening. Brad | ||
| Bomber |
yeah, like YOU'VE never said that! ;-} |
