Supporting Member texscottyd Posted August 4, 2018 Supporting Member Share Posted August 4, 2018 @kw2070 - I know, weird setup with one riveted and one with a pin. Good news is that it’s a five minute job to drill/grind the rivet, and you can replace with a standard pin-style setup going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark&Stormy Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I think its for looks a rivet looks 'cleaner' than a clevis and cotter pin on that side of the bike... but yeah i just driĺled the rivet and knocked it out with a punch and installed Yamaha SCR950 adventure pegs.

chitown Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Yamaha's been doing this on one or both pegs on some models for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
