    Yes Deathman, exactly like that. I'm gonna be buying a banshee set soon and I'll be working on adapting them.

    Haha I think every Tri-Z owner will agree that the footpegs must have been an after thought to Yamaha. I'd hate to think they spent more then 5-10 minutes designing them.

    Or you could go on a diet!!!

    Just kidding man. I wish I had the balls to try that stuff but getting old, owning a house and having to pay your bills keeps me slightly mellow. Can't make any $ in the hospital.

    Lots O Trikes!!!!!

    Already have. Been doing the Atkins since Christmas and have lost about 50lbs so far. Went from 238-lower 240s to the mid 190s.

    I hate to say it, but you are right. The right side peg especially is a very poor design. There is very little metal at the stress point, and then the kickstarter keeps betaing little bites out of it, and its a fairly common problem Used right side foot pegs are hard to find. The good news is that a madman with a welder can really beef it up to where this is not a potential problem. Been there, done that.

    Hopefully Billy will have that thing and himself at peak levels at Tirkefest. I can handle getting beat by a young punk as long as he takes out Flyin' Brian with a Yammie!
