    Hey gang, my wife just started riding with me on our 2005 VFR800. Her only complaint are the pegs make her feet sore after an hours ride or so. I'm looking to find her some better options and thought the group may have some recomendations?

    The only options I can find are on ebay and have no idea if they are worth looking at?

    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Maybe she needs some pegs with rubber to reduce the vibes.

    Yeah, that's a good point. Was trying to find ones with a wider base, but not sure any exist for a vfr.

    THURN motorsports in Germany has a variety of foot pegs available, the parts list is just that a list in German with a brief English translation, if you send Gerhard an email he’ll let you know what he can supply

    He does list both rubber and longer pegs, plus fully adjustable riders pegs

    If pillion comfort is a big deal for you, you might want to look into peg extension or lowering kits. They are cheap and functional.
    Basically just moves the pegs down and out a few inches, which will do more for comfort than anything else.

    And yes, there are models that are designed to account for the exhaust.
