Vee Rear Footpeg
« on: September 28, 2014, 11:01:05 »
Had a low speed off a couple of days ago on a low grip tight uphill driveway ### . I'm OK just some bruised ribs and bruised pride. Damage is limited to some scratches on the right hand hand guard, a broken indicator and a slightly bent rear brake pedal. The pedal is usable but would like to replace. Does anyone know if there is anyone out there selling pattern brake pedals? Cheaper than genuine Suzuki in any case.  

Thanks,

Will

Why do damaged ribs hurt so much? :violin:

 :ty: Ptarmigan, well spotted. A geniuine Suzuki pedal is £50 plus the postage, this one is under £40 delivered so a good saving.

Interestingly the Ebay ad links to the manufacturers website LNparts Ltd (UK manufacturer), whom it seems make all sorts of pattern rear brake levers for all sorts of Suzukis. I'll save it for future reference as I also have a GSXR. The part is also £1 cheaper directly from them.

Good Find.  :thumb:

I got my recently replaced brake pedal (and other bits including the handguard) from Robinsons Foundry - but that was £49 for the pedal.

Great service from them though.
