Goodone !!! I was wondering about that myself....it will be interesting to see how that bracket will take a hit w/o bending in.... I keep forgetting to ask you how your side is after the crash...???

Great idea. I have never thought of that. I'll make a set for my Skorpion roadracer. I owe you one.

Saved the trouble on my Baggy, took the pillion footrests and the brackets.

yeh when i crashed mine it also came away virtually undamaged, tho the passenger peg bracket did bend in---the kickstand didn't seat right as a result and so i bent them back in place..no biggie, but they will deform.
