Hello fellow riders,
I am new to the forum and looking for some info on replacing the stock footpegs on my 2007 Norge. I had seen a 2007 Norge with MFW footpegs mounted on it on e-bay so I know there's a set that will fit it. However the MFW web site doesn't list a set for this bike. I would not be surprised if a set made for another bike would fit. Does anyone have any information that could help ? Thanks, bsahdmg
 
Re: footpegs

I have some aluminum foot pegs that I made on my lathe. I don't use them, went back to the stock pegs. If your interested send me a email at lotus23bsr at yahoo dot com and I will send you some pictures. If you want them you can have them for just the cost of shipping.
Sorry, but when I first posted my reply to this thread I didn't read the topic well enough. the pegs I have made are not lower

The foot pegs are an Aprilla part number. See if MFW lists pegs for Aprillas.

Hello John,
Thanks for the info. MFW does have two listing for Aprilla. Both are for rear pegs. Twisted Throttle has them on their
web site. I e-mailed them to see if they knew which one's might fit but they weren't any help. I think I will remove one of mine and measure it and get back in touch with them or MFW and see if we can match them up with the dimensions. Thanks again. Howard
 
Re: footpegs

The front pegs are spring loaded to the down position. The rear pegs have detentes for position (up or down). The good thing is, the rear pegs can be mounted to the front, you just cant use the spring to keep them down. Download the parts manual for your bike and see if they can cross reference from the Aprilla number. Probability is low, but worth a shot.
 
There's a link about fitting lower pegs to 1200 Sports from Buell sourced bits for about £35, complete with part numbers and instructions on the 1200 Sport Forum here;

http://www.1200sport.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=177

I've done this to my 1200 Breva which I presume has the same footrests as the Norge, and it pushes them down and back, the only 'issue' is that my left heel catches the centre stand tang sometimes, but otherwise I've found them a lot better than standard, which used to give me some nasty cramping in the thigh.....

Good Luck
 
I should have mentioned an alternative to lowering the pegs that gets the same effect with additional benefit if you legs are long enough. Try raising the seat. That will open up the knee and hip joint. Also since the stock seat is marginal (foam too soft) a denser foam adding a couple inches to the seat works well for seating position and comfort. Sargent in the US is adept at that. It was my solution to an uncomfortable 1100 Breva.
 
Brian, I have the Goldwing pegs on my Norge. they lower your feet about 3/4 inch. The left peg rides on the side stand when it is retracted, other than that they are wider so you have a little wiggle room. I like them.
