Author Message   Rob_l Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 07:25 am:        After a nice 300 mi. ride last weekend the rubber is gone from the toe piece of the shift lever. Crap, anyone know if I can get a replacement rubber or something that will work?   Smoke4ndmears Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 07:59 am:        happens. mine left over 10k ago and I don't mind it not being there. you can use fuel line to replace it.   Trbulnt Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 09:49 am:        Just saw this Billet peg on the Erik Buell Racing page the yesterday. http://www.erikbuellracing.com/store/models/1125r/ billet-shift-and-brake-pedal-toe-peg.html   Ratbuell Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 10:59 am:        +1 on fuel line. or vacuum hose. or...just a big honkin' wrap of electrical tape.   Northernyankee Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 11:17 am:        +1 on the Erik Buell Racing Billet Toe Pegs.   Xtreme6669 Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 11:22 am:        American Sport Bike has them... I found them on there site but I ended up buying a new brake and shifter lever when mine went...   Rob_l Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 11:52 am:        Billet is sweet for sure. Hose will do for now. Thanks guys.   Dannybuell Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 12:04 pm:        I took my shift peg rubber off in the first week of ownership. As you pull your foot away after an upshift there is a tendency for the shoe to stick on the rubber.   Rob_l Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 01:35 pm:        OK here's what I did. Switched shifter toe peg with brake side then put 3/4" heat shrink tube 34mm long over rubber applied heat. Heat shrink tube isn't sticky as the rubber and should last. As for brake side cut 7/16 fuel hose 30mm long and with help from a little silicone spray pushed it over peg. I don't want boot slipping off the brake.   Jules Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 02:36 pm:        Hairspray is a good lubricant, and then sets to a sticky "glue"... Obviously that information is intended for use by people sliding rubber hoses over their toe pegs, i wouldn't recommend it as a lubricant for anything else.... apparently it stings..   Dannybuell Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 03:07 pm:        That is another creative use of hair spray. I had a Las Vegas showgirl tell me that hair spray was good for...Ooops PM me if you want the answer.   Sl33py Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 03:44 pm:        xtreme - where did you get your billet ones?   Methyman Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 05:09 pm:        http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/16209.html http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/16210.html   Xtreme6669 Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 07:28 pm:        Yep... American Sport Bike!
