Did you notice if they sit any higher than the stock pegs? I ask because most pegs that are available here in Japan sit a bit higher than OEM.

Thanks

 

I have nothing against the the state of Iowa, but that there is FUNNY!

 

Sorry, I don't recall. I don't think they did, but if they did, I didn't notice.

 

you're the one who hijacked the thread with your little poor me riff about someone undercutting someone else and then failed to respond to my questions regarding your personal items not being made or designed in America. You've still tiptoed the question, not surprised with the lack of intelligence you've shown.
I don't know where you got the "stay at home mom" idea. I work as a counselor and am 3 weeks away from having a masters in public administration from Drake University- one of the top business programs in the land.
I think you need to brush up on your social studies knowledge. Your absurdly idiotic comment regarding population and lack of schools is off base. It works just the opposite my friend. With such a small population means there is a smaller student/teacher ratio in all schools. This generally merits better grades and expanded knowledge in students of all ages from kindergarten to grad school.
Iowa's universities are regularly ranked ahead of schools in the northeast.

 

any proof of your statements?

 

I'm not trying to prove anything, that's just my perception of it. Like I said, I have no problem with them, if you and others like them great, but no need to beat people up that prefer the higher quality part.

On closer look, they do look cast, though, not stamped. Hard to say about the quality of the metal, probably not the best. And I would prefer sharp cleats to keep the boot from slipping. I'm sure you could file those sharp, but then I bet they would rust.

 

me beating someone up for preferring the IMS? dude, you're an intelligent guy. I was the one who got thrown under the bus for buying these cheap pegs. Didn't you read the post about the way he wants to end capitalism? Where did I ever say the IMS pegs weren't good or that you shouldn't buy them? All I ever said was that for the money, these pegs were hard to beat. As far as strength, I'd put them up against the IMS pegs. But for corrosion, yeah they'd probably rust. But I'm not flying through the jungle at 50 mph standing on the pegs and I doubt anyone else here is. I've seen you ride and you don't either. But to say that they aren't equal in quality depends on what you call quality? SS doesn't necessarily mean better quality. The stockers aren't SS and for the majority of people, that doesn't matter a bit.
This whole thing is a ridiculously moot subject to debate on here, but when I'm called out on something as petty as being proud of my $20 wide footpegs from someone boohooing that he didn't come up with the idea, I'll debate til the cows come home. Guess that's the Iowa way.

 

I do ride 50 mph + and with the stockers had a high speed get off thats why i went with the ims if you ride street those other ones would be fine hell a rubber insert one might even be better.

 

It would be impossible to ride 50+ in the woods we ride in, maybe for short sections on the power lines. So there's not too much open stuff here, the most open nearby is about two hours south of me when I ride with the guys down around Fayetteville. 50+ is the norm there. And I'm on the pegs a lot in either case, at least half the time if not more, depending on the terrain.

 

For what its worth, I have no interest in having a debate about life with Iowa Guy. He is, as alway, right about everything, as always. No one should bother to make a point to him, as he has all the answers, for everything, as always.

I have no problem with the corn they grow, and them there Iowa corn fed country girls look gooder then'a new set'a snowtires. ( did I say that right IG? )
Perhaps I should throw away my MS from WPI (look it up IG) and go to Iowa so I too can get a real education in a small country college where there are 5 teachers to every student.
Thanks but no thanks. I will just be in awe of Iowa Guys far superior knowledge, about everything, as always.

I think in the future I will just pretend Iowa Guy is always right, and not bother to make any counterpoints, as apparently "I know nuthin" !!
