Well as a couple people know that I got some double pegs off of blastard (awesome guy, and thank you) and some heelguards off of super noober (another awesome guy and thank you). Well when I tryied to put the pegs on, the one that was on the clutch side with welded on, so I got to thinking how to fix it. Well luckly it was pretty much just plug welded where the bolt holes are, so I dilled them out and took a hammer to them and got them off. Then I ground off the old welds and got everything smooth, unfortunetly while doing this on the back bolt location I started grinding through the end cap on the pipe, so I had to fill it will welding. ANY WELDERS OUT THERE MAY WANT TO ADVERT YOUR EYES, lol. I know the welding looks like sh*t, I ended up doing it with the mig and I hate welding with a MIG. Also I don't have much experience welding in general. I does have a touch of flex, but I'm not sure where its flexing at, but I could jump on it and there was no popping and such so it's not going anywhere. Also fab up my heelguards, Unfortunetly when I mounted the peg on the clutch side it stick out a bit far, and I catch it with my heel when I'm kickstarting the bike, but I may try to bend the upper mount over a bit more to get it out of the way.

man... why the hell would someone weld thier pegs on..... i think you did a good job considering what you had to start with. not sure how you can fix your kicker issue.. can you bend teh heelguard bracket at all to gain some more clearance?
