Shift-tech Adjustable Pegs
I just installed the adjustable pegs on my hyper. If anyone else has them, did you ditch the spring for the OEM fold-able stock pegs? There really isn't a hole in the shift tech pegs for the spring to attach or rest on. I like them when they were spring loaded, but without the spring I think i am going to constantly have problems.

I have those as well and I used the spring from the stock pegs. Don't remember if there is a hole in pegs but there is definitely something as I installed it with no problems...

They install with the pegs. Here's a pointer... grind down the short end of your 5mm allen wrench about 1/4" so you can adjust/tighten the pegs without having to disassemble everything. Carry it with you when you ride. Even with blue locktite, it is good to check the screws.

Don't you guys still have issues with grinding the brake levers even with these pegs??
We need someone to come up with brake levers that have more bend upwards so that they can be adjusted out of the way.

Had to laugh reading about grinding down the allen wrench. That's exactly what I had to do. Wasn't smart enough to put it in the toolkit though (doh!).
Had no problem using the stock springs. All the holes or slots or whatever were right where they were supposed to be.
