Since its taking so long for the BLS version of pegs I thought I would give these a try since they are also adjustable in a multitude of positons from up, down, forward, rear and in between. They are from Thurn in Germany. What do you think?

I like the concept of the pegs, but the style is rather...German. Guess I have spent too many years on BMW's :P Now the carbon fiber on the heal guard, not so sure about that :beer:

I found them on ebay but they are on his website also which I don't have the URL for any longer. With shipping (Airmail, 3 days) was $150.

Yes they are just like a poormans rearset.

Great find! I didn't see them on their site. (I wonder if they'll work on a 4th gen)

RC46 (5th gen) "footrests" page: http://www.thurn-motorsport.de/html/fahrwerk-rc46_1.html

RC36 (4th gen) "footrests" page: http://www.thurn-motorsport.de/html/fahrwerk-rc36.html

Can you identify them on this page? I couldnt.

Thanks!

Well no I can't find them from the links you gave me. Here is a link to EBAY item. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda-VFR80...005149196QQrdZ1

Do those pegs seem to move your foot outward such that you find yourself toeing in to shift or brake?

I have not noticed that.

Any interest in selling your stock front pegs???

What is the width between foot peg holder sides? I love those pegs and would like to try them on another application. My application is 3/4 inch between sides and 1/2 inch from the bolt hole to the inner edge. Thanks.

I don't have stock pegs. I had Buell pegs on there.

So how do they compare to the Buell pegs? Which is lower? I'm looking for a little more leg room. The adjustable feature is a plus, but mostly I'm after more comfort on a 600-mile day.

Also teleskier who did you get them from?

Or who has the best price?

Along with part #'s?

Or if they will fit the 94-97's??

I can't find any USA Thurn Dealers.

FYI I'll be having a big sale with stock rear sets,900rr rear sets (that fit on the 94-97's),after market rear sets (from Germany) and many damaged fairing/sub frame parts for 94-97's (red) I have gatherd over the years I thought I would use some day and relized I they take up too much room and I'm picky/lazy and will never fix them or use them the way they look on my near perfect 97. Don't pm me just keep a watch out if intrested. It will happen some rainy day soon and this and some other VFR websites will have first crack ot them before they go to Fleabay.

I find they are about the same as the Buell as far as drop. They just look better in my opinion and I can rotate them back for track days to get more clearance.

Buell pegs are so cheap it would not be worth you buying them even at half price and paying shipping.

Sorry I missed this on my previous reply. I bought them on Ebay from Thurn. I posted a current Ebay auction number earlier. He has no dealer in the US. He is quick to reply to emails so you can ask him about fit on earlier models.

Nice, thanks for posting this up!

Looks like from the ebay auction they give you almost 1 inch drop....

May have to get a set of these bad boyz myself, sure could use a little bit more room...

Any noticeable change in vibration felt in the feet with these?

I can only comment on Buell vs. these as I never rode with stock pegs much as they were too cramped for me. As with any all metal peg there is some vibration but its not bad until you're tached way out.

:offtopic: Good link and it saves money...Thank you. I sent a e-mail to that website asking what they are refering to about "They fit Master Grip and Racing Footrest (but not the Sport Version)"

Sounds to me they need some thing more to get them to fit/work...which will cost more then the Thurns if these are not Thurns which it kinda looks like.

This website kinda says they need these foot rests
