[QUOTE="Gurock, post: 941230, member: 28308"] My 06 FJR has been laid up since October due to a a fall when my dad had a heart attack. I left it in front of my house in my rush to get to California and some clown knocked it over with his car. That broke the steering lock collar around the ignition and the ignition lock. My dad has been sick in California and recently passed away. It left me too busy to fix my bike. Now the Chicago weather is breaking and I have time to take care of my bike. Being that I have no mechanical aptitude I'm going to have shop fix it. Also being an older more fat guy I'd already added Heli triple clamp and bar extensions and had my seat modified. While the bike is in the shop I'm considering MCL highway pegs and lowering brackets being about 6' 0" and 285 lbs. I'm wondering what others think of this idea. No disrespect to Wild Bill and maybe lots of you think his pegs are better? It's just that I've seen a few complaints that riders crashed in the turns blaming Wild Bill on this forum. Also, I do ride a lot in season. I'm hoping to put on 10 to 20 thousand miles this season and I'm trying to relieve strain on my old hips. Any suggestions will be welcome [/QUOTE]
