Thank you to Jim for the mount, but I also wanted to explain why I have highway pegs on my bike. I do NOT use them for their intended purpose – I find them very uncomfortable as foot rests.
They are there to protect the bike when it goes down. Which happens. Sometimes the bike falls over at rest, and sometimes it goes down while in motion. These highway pegs do a remarkable job protecting the bike when it goes over.
I was recently nudged over by a car while doing about 20 MPH. The only thing that absolutely HAD to be replaced on the side of the bike that hit the pavement was the speedometer. Other easily replaceable parts had minor road rash – mostly just the mirror and the driver foot peg. And, of course, the highway peg mount was ruined in the process of doing its job, protecting everything else.
