A friend of mine has a XB12 Firebolt. He is 60 years old and would like to relocate the footpegs to a much better position. He as put on Lightning pegs and that helped some but he still needs more help.

He has seen some Buells in magazines with pegs relocated at the lower front of the engine. Usually that is with old frame Buells. Is there anybody that knows where he can get that done or have a better suggestion?

If he doesn't push really hard in the twisties he could try retro-fitting a set of Uly rear-
sets (peg mounts) to his firebolt. It will decrease the amount of lean angle before touching
down hard parts though.
