easy to do .. lay your kicker on anything .. outline the outside for the correct pedal angle .. disassemble your pedal to just the spindle only . cut off the old kicker just below foot peg set your new spindle and kicker back on your template. tack it .. weld it .. clean up the weld .. coat it anyway you like .. reassemble . throw it on your bike and kick away..
well i have heard of people cutting off the stud that comes from the kicker dril it and tap it to the size of the spindle of the pedal from the bicycle then thread lock the treads then tighten it then your done but that way sounds good too.
