I'm also on the search for some pegs. Pivot Pegz have caught my eye as well.

Seems like no matter what pegs you buy you have to remove some material to keep it from chomping on the brake pedal.

We installled the Fastway F3's on my son's 2010 without doing any modifications. We have tried the pivotpegs and they feel wierd to me. I think I may be able to get use to them but it's an odd feeling for my foot to rock back and forth like they do. A friend has them on his 450R Honda and loves them; me not so much. Oh, Dave they allow your foot to rock or pitch forward and back or piviot.

Yes,
I have them for about 1 year and I love them.
The first riding is a bit strange, because of the movement, but after that you do not feel them. I see no negavis on that. A friend of mine is using them too and he told me, since he installed the Pivotpegs he stand more on the bike than before.

+1

One of the best mods I've done, really surprised me. I bought used to try as I thought they might be a gimmick, but no. I find I can ride more aggressive, foward, more comfortably. Its a lot more natural to keep your head over the bars. Forget tall bars and submounts, these have done more for making standing up more natural.

+1!!! I bought a bike with Pivot Pegz (thanks Boomhauer) and really like them as they seem to keep me fresher throughout the day and allow me to move around easier. I never would have bought them on my own but now they are the only ones I would buy!

I rode the GGs of Boomer and GGMan with P-Pegs installed. They didn't bother to mention until afterward, however. During the ride I was marveling at how all racy and aggressive my new, lean-forward attack stance once. Loved 'em.

Still haven't bought them for my bike cuz I'm cheap.

I like the Pivot Pegs also,the only drawbacks are replacing springs and they pack with mud. They also are alot easier on the soles of your boots.

Do the pivot pegz also require grinding to clear the brake pedal/allow for folding? Are there any pegs that do not require grinding?
