Guys-

I am coming home for leave at the end of October. The army has put all my stuff in storage, including the passenger pegs for my XB9R, and I can;t get to it on leave. I gotta be able to take my cute girlfriend on a ride!!!

Is there ANYONE who would be willing to loan me theirs for a week? You can never have too many loyal friends, and I'd be certainly owing a big one if someone could help me out.

(think I've lost what little wheelie skills I had built-up?)

Thanks!
Sherm
GARRYOWEN!!!

How far are you from Cincinnati? Don't know how interchangable the pegs are (I have a set of stock rider pegs I pulled when I put on the Banke pegs, if they fit you can use them). If that fails, we can probably work out something with the whole M2, which the girlfriend might appreciate more then the XB anyway. Not nearly as reliable, but more comfortable, and it still "sounds right".

Guys, I need the brackets and the pegs. You know, the whole big V-shape thing that bolts to the subframe, and, well, the bolts, too.

Gee, thanks for the offer to take my girl riding!

Geesh Sherm, I would not do that to you, *you* would get to ride, if you don't mind slumming on an M2 for a while ; )

Looks like you are pretty far away though. The offer stands if it works out for other reasons though, if you and the lady want to visit Cincinnati.

Odie, Henrick, Reep, and Mook-

Thanks! My leave just wouldn't be complete without taking my girl for a ride (cue the Beavis & Butthead uhhh-huh-huh-huh).

An M-2 ain't slummin'!

Odie, where are you? My girl uses the same internet provider as you, so you must be close.

I'll e-mail you. Thanks!!!

Sherm

Thanks Sherm for clarifying your first name! I was dying when people were calling you Gary. (Gary Owen-(sound bugles))

Hope you get the pegs you need and thanks for your service!

I have those pegs and brackets as well. I'm in NYC and would have to ship. Let me know if things don't work out and you need them.

Let me know, Thad
