New "Bigfoot" foot pegs.
Followed the example of a buddy over on the ADV site and got myself some larger foot pegs finally. The price was too good to pass up and got free delivery from the supplier, who I think is in China, which is was great.
Got the pegs for AU $19.90. Sweeeeeett!
Got them off ebay from this store>>>http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....#ht_3336wt_913 (No affiliation with this seller.)
No problems with payment (payed with Paypal) and the items were delivered to my door in West Aus in 7 days. I got at least 3 emails from the seller informing me of my orders progress which is great customer service IMO.
Fitted the pegs up this morning. All up it took me less than 30 minutes, including slightly increasing the size of the mounting holes on the new pegs to 8 mm. The holes were just shy of the OE pin size and the pin wouldn't go through. 8 mm HSS bit sorted the problem without issues.
Below are a few pics to show the new product.
A pretty easy mod, cheap too. I'm looking forward to the new grip and comfort from the larger pegs.

Interesting. So the wider pegs should make things more comfy when standing, but do they affect your gear shifting at all? And what about when you are pivoting over rough terrain?
I had a look at the Pivot Pegz (http://www.pivotpegz.net/) which I think are a little wider than stock, and of course the pivot - but then I couldn't justify the cost considering I'm no performance rider.
I also think Steg Pegz (http://www.stegpegz.com.au/) are a cool idea, but they aren't available for the KLX and are VERY pricey too.

Hey Westoz they look good.... I have seen them but wasn’t sure on the quality and was too scared that they might break while standing (that would hurt allot).
Arctra………. don’t quote me on this but I’m pretty sure they don’t make piviot pegs for the KLX250. I think a few people have tried to get them to but with out any luck. I tried sending them an email a while back and am still waiting for the reply.
