V85tt foot peg idea.

Exactly what I claimed and exactly what happened. Confused? Gee, I admitted you were right, what more do you want?

Please relax. It's all good.

I was just confused by your writings that's all.

It's not a "win or lose" or "I'm right, you're wrong" anything. It's just conversation. Besides, it's your motorcycle. 👌👍

Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry. 😆

All that I ever hope for anybody here, is that they simply enjoy their motorcycle.

I wish you the best!

That hole that goes completely through the oil pan in the V85tt and is used to mount the crash bars can also be used to mount foot pegs. I bought some stainless steel threaded rod (which goes through said hole), some spacers and some foot pegs online and made this (see photo). I did have to tap the mounting holes on the foot pegs I bought to match the thread pitch on the stainless steel rod, but that was easy. The whole job took well under an hour.

With this setup I can push on the foot peg hard enough to lift my butt off the seat if I also have my camping bag behind me as a backrest. This works great to keep my rear from getting saddle sore on a long ride, and alleviates lower back pain at the same time.

Can you provide the threaded rod dimensions you used?
