From what I've researched so far...no. Everything I've seen up to this point talks about lowering the front pegs. I don't think you want to do that.

looks like they won't fit the front pegs spot,the pin is twice the size in diameter there meaning the zg pegs would have to be drilled out to fit which in my opinion would make it very weak and prone to breakage.

Here's a photo from Kawasaki's website. I'm sure there are better photos out there- search for the 2015 thread and I'll bet there are good photos there. But these should actually match the rider pegs so that's what I'm getting for my '08.

34028D STEP,RR,LH

I'm hoping the springs and other assorted nuts & bolts transfer over so I don't have to buy them...
Title: Re: New passenger foot pegs
Post by: bigfraid on July 14, 2015, 01:11:15 PM: Looks like they re going to run around $100.00 for a set.
Title: Re: New passenger foot pegs
Post by: connie_rider on July 14, 2015, 02:09:00 PM: Seems like a lot of expense to have matching pegs.
In my case, my wife has asked for rubber pegs to make them more comfortable for her.
So, I'm interested but already paid for peg lowers. Not looking to spend another $100...

I see where someone installed pegs from a C-10.
But they seem too large to me...

Will used front pegs from a C-14 fit?
If not, does anyone know of pegs from a used bike that would fit?
Other options?

Ride safe, Ted

the front pegs won't work the pin is way to big for the rear pegs.

I have the same set up since 2008 on my old C14... power-coating is a great idea... I gotta do it.

Took these off my 2005 KLR650 since the passenger would not ride on it. She likes them on the C14.

I came across these footpegs on Ebay. ($16)
I ordered a set and plan to see if I can make them fit as passenger pegs.
After I bought, I discovered they also sell C-14 pegs. (Which have the same pattern in the rubber part as our C-14's)
Same story, they could possibly be made to fit the passenger location.

More later, Ride safe, Ted
