KZ650 and KZ750 foot pegs mounts

I thought about purchasing one of the bracket arms from the kit to see if it would physically bolt up, I think you can order them separate. That would minimize the cost should they not work. I ended up buying their universal kit and making them work with a simple bracket - similar to the approach David took above.


I've changed things up a bit since these pics but you get the idea.

As far as what comes in the kit, you will need to fabricate a shifter linkage. I cut down my existing shifter, and used my existing drum brake rod to make the linkage. On the brake side it really depends on what you have. I had a drum but converted to a mono-shock swingarm with a disk. That made it pretty simple as all I had to do is position the master cylinder on my bracket. To make things even more simple I went with an integral pressure switch/banjo bolt which eliminates the need for a conventional switch.

FFTP sells several linkage parts so it's pretty easy to piece something together if you don't want to cut up your existing parts.

It's a bit hard to me to have in my head right, I think it will be easier once I have the parts
