Passenger Peg/Board Relocation (updated 08/26/07)

SilverBack:
Any peg or board that attaches to the stock passenger peg holes in the frame can be relocated down and forward - varying amounts depending on the peg/board and your pipes. Remove the peg/boards where they bolt to the frame and check to see if you have enough clearance - pipes and other body parts. Check by placing the mounts, with boards/pegs attached, on various points of the boomerang and check clearance - be sure to do both sides as the clearances vary and you do want the boards the same height on both sides.
If you get satisfactory relocation distance, and clear parts and pipes, then you can mark and drill two holes per side and use through bolts with washers, lock washers and nylox nuts to secure the mounts in the new location. Note, the boomerang appears to be solid cast metal, but it is in fact a formed, hollow piece, so you will drill through into the center and need to continue drilling out the other side.
I did this with a set of Barons Offset Pass. Board - which by them selves gave some relief from stiff knees and long legs. I wanted my wife to have even more room, and used the above approach to move the boards down by almost 3 inches and about the same forward. I was able to use some chrome bolts that Barons had included with the original kit - they were for use on a roadie. Note: In the pix you can see the stock peg mounting bolts, behind the relocated boards..

From cruzmystar: shifter side rod is 6mmx1 and brake side rod is 8mmx1.25. Also don't forget that the shifter side is right hand thread on one end and left hand thread on the other. making your own extensions? it's pretty easy.
