Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R 2026 Front Foot Controls with Mid-position Footrests

[chrisb031]

I bought the Triumph Rocket 3 Storm 2026 Satin Baja Orange (love that color) which is only offered on the R model
But I also like the Front Foot Controls riding position !
I also noticed on long rides that I like to change riding positions and was looking into adding mid-position footrests (not a lot of info on that)

So here are my instructions if you'd like that setting !

After purchasing and installing the A9770249 Front Foot Control Kit black (880$ CDN + tx)

You need to leave the following 6 pieces installed (from the mid-control) on the Rocket

21 Bracket Sidestand T2082465
3 Control Plate LH T2082325
4 Heel Guard LH T2082826
1 Mount, Control Plate RH T2082321
2 Control Plate RH T2082326
5 Heel Guard RH T2082827

keep Footrest (17) LH T2082668 handy

The A9770249 Front Foot Control Kit will cannibalize parts of the current footrests ...
So you will need to purchase the following pieces (272$ CDN + tx):

2 x Rubber footrest T2082336 20$ CDN ea.
2 x Pin Pivot Footrest T2080546 9$ CDN ea.
2 x Circlip Ext 8 x 0.89 T3500207 4$ CDN ea.
2 x Return Spring Footrest T2089638 9$ CDN ea.
1 x Peg Bank Angle 9.2mm T2085164 18$ CDN
1 x Footrest RH Black T2082667 170$ CDN

You will notice that I did not include 2 x Triumph Metal Insert Footrest T2082506 because at 144$ CDN each I decided to 3D print the part instead !

Using two M5x12 bolts to secure the Rubber to the footpeg.

Assemble and then install on the Rocket.

Doesn't kill the look and so useful !

Interesting. I’ve thought about putting a set of highway pegs on mine via a set of crash bars, but hadn’t considered having both sets of controls installed simultaneously. I bought a GT but as it was used it has the mid-pegs installed. I am comfortable with the riding position, but often wonder if I would like to occasionally stick my legs out a bit more. Could be something to consider.

I made something like a floorboards on my GT with two pegs.... And highway leg rests

Good job Rick. You have managed to have a three way option. Just don’t get confused in an emergency. Impressive that you found a way to make a long trip a little easier on the legs, feet and hips.

Rick can you show us the parts and how you made these in detail ? I would like to have some rear pegs too. I stopped at my local Triumph dealer and just the 4 parts to needed to even mount pegs was over $600 not including pegs. The entire Triumph kit was quoted at $775. I don't want to spend that much to add 2 pegs.

Well, you'd have to be comfortable working with steel. welding ,bending, grinding, drilling. I wouldn't know how to give you dimensions or anything. I didn't keep track of any of that. Best I could do is search out some pictures from old threads, and try to explain. I just used existing holes and bolt that were on the bike near the locations I wanted to have the pegs. I used the kickstand mounting bolts on the left side. I bought longer bolts and put spacers. I used 3/4" aluminum rod for the spacers. I cut the length and then drilled a hole through it. Then I bolted through the flat steel and spacer. You could make it for one peg of course.

On the right side it was a little more complicated. I had to make pieces from 1 1/4"x1/4" steel. Just rough measuring and bending and trying until they fit. the one on the left is an early single peg attempt for the kickstand side.

Theres a much easier way to get mid peg foot rests on this bike though. If you look at the way I made the highway pegs in this picture. Its 1 1/4"x1/4" flat steel, sandwiched between the stock peg mounts. You could do the same thing,but run the steel rearward to the mid position. And bolt the peg to the end of it. Should work for both sides, and wouldn't require welding, or much, if any, bending. Here's a link to the pegs I used. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09RZMS2MW?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1

That is some clean work Rick. Very nice. I have some brackets my son made for moving the forward controls back an extra 2". I was thinking of having him make them an extra 10" long to do exactly what you suggested. I think that will work too. It won't look as good as your work though. Nice Job Rick. Thanks for sharing.
