So, you hate this person you're going to give a ride to? Well, they'll hate you after you make them ride back there for anything over 5 minutes.

But seriously, though dan seldom provides any useful info on this forum, please take his advice on those free pegs offered by Newparts. Oh...and I hope this person on back is really small and really light.

 

me at #160 (at the time) and my fiance #140, rode double up just dandy vroom vroom. Good thing the clutch is in oil because otherwise I woulda burned that sucker out

 

In my best Bill Clinton accent...could you define "dandy"?...LOL!

 

Let me bounce this off your guys. So this is what I thought I could do to "widen" the foot peg to make it more comfortable for a passenger. I'm thinking a 1/4" round welded to the foot peg. It would need to be level with the surface of the foot peg. It wouldn't interfere with pushing the foot pegs up.

Do you think this design would be sturdy enough for a passenger?

 

Whatever you do, don't make them longer, they are cheap cast aluminum and the extra leverage WILL break their **** off

 

I gave my wife a short ride a few months after I got my bike. She's 5'10 and very fit. We got home after our 2 mile jaunt to pick up some stamps and she said, "That was totally crazy. This is a dirt bike. Go have fun with it and don't worry about taking me on rides." So, Off With The Pegs! I think Monster Addict and I may have a deal in the works. Later Guys

 

Hey guys i'm new on here and just bought a kdx 220 and loving it. I want to get some passenger pegs for it but they're all crazy expensive. I think if I drill a hole in the sub frame the pegs off of the klx250 will fit. They look pretty similar. Let me know if you have any you want to part with!

 

If you are sure you want to add passenger pegs to a KDX, drilling a hole in the subframe will really weaken it. I would look into finding or making some type of mount that clamps around the sub frame tubing.

 

I will. Thanks for the advice!
