Same frame, same motor, same drive train, i would think it would bolt up i thought about those befor if you get them let me know how they work out. i would think youd be better of using pegs though, i wouldent want to get those hooked up on something they dont flop up like the stock pegs may be bad! i know i live how the pegs flop up it saves me alot

Don’t worry, After a couple of times of running over you foot you will learn not to put you feet down in front of the tire. What do you think your riding a dirt bike? :doh:


It may or may not the frame I think is similar, The swing tail was differant and the front forks were bigred forks the eng. was the 250 SX eng.

yeah they look like they bolt on the foot pegs. they look kinda cheap though! i would craft my own before i paid 100 bucks for those.

i just don't like driving through tight woods (forging my own path) and then finding like a small stump and jamming my foot. but yeah, for 80 bucks and not being able to flip up at all, i hope they just wouldn't rip right off.

i would find a diffrent way to make your own, maby some angle and some square tubing and have them bolt only on to the begs so they can still flip up:headbang:

They set lower than the peg and wider, and you will not be able to run your back tire over stumps or rocks that wont fit under the trike. they will get hung on the floor board. (stump catcher)

ive seen some hooks that come off the end of the pegs at an angle maby those would help you out. now i just have to remember where i saw them. it was eather an old dirtwheels or dennis kirk. look easy to make though
