Rear foot pegs. I removed the chincy looking rear pegs when I added the rear dresser bars, intending to replace them with some better ones. I visited two local metric dealers but they had nothing. Has anyone replaced their rear pegs with some better after market pegs. I do not want floorboards. I did a web search for Kuryakin but cannot find what I want. Part of the problem is the web catalogs don't show what size bolt goes into the back of the peg mount. I believe the hole in the strut is for a 9mm bolt.

Front tire. I am about to replace my front tire at 12k miles. A friend who owns a V-twin performance shop is going to sell me the tire and mount it. I gave him size and make (Metzler ME880 Marathon) but his tire catalog showed two options for the Rocket, one a radial. The radial had an XXL rating, or something like that. I don't find anything like that on my front tire. I thought these were radials. What does it take?

They look good, who makes them and where did you get them from? You might have mentioned it in your PM but I think you left it out here.....unless I am going blind.... which could very well be.
