there arent too many pics out there- ive looked. I'm building my own, using a set of pegs from a Suzuki GZ250 Marauder. heres pics of the mod and build.
pegs with pipe extenders added-
holding up for a mockup
brake side installed
figuring out the shifter
i still have a ton of work to do, the shift linkage in particular is giving me fits. and yes, that is the rear brake rod attached to the shifter. this setup uses a cable for the rear brake, which i'm happy about to get rid of all that linkage. problem is, the cable is too short by about 3 inches. Lots of problems to sort out when doing custom designs like this, but hopefully worth it in the end.
