locogato11283 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 OK, if you have seen any of my hillclimb videos you've probably seen me run over my leg at least twice. That shit hurts. I have been lucky to not have broken anything.So, in an effort to keep my legs in tact, I designed some heel guards for use with Roll Design foot pegs.I designed the pegs, put them on paper and sent it to JD.I got them last week, bought some 1" nylon from Jo Ann fabric and had my grandma sew them up for the netting.I got to use these today. You can't even tell they're there, which is what I wanted.Starting the bike with them is no issue. I have a big 18DM and if I can start it with that motor, you can start anything. They weigh 1 pound 14 ounces per side.Here are some pics.. Quote
thomas h. Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Cool, and I really like that JD is willing to try new stuff out. Quote
sheerider11 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Off topic kind of, are there any nerfs that work with roll pegs? I'd like a full set. Quote
Scrubtherubber Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 looks pretty cool, after seeing my friend get 147 staples from his knee to his gootch from getting sucked under his yfz, heel guards are always a plus Quote
toytech Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 loco, what kind of front plastics are on the green and black bike? Quote

toytech Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Voltric. I'm going to have to look into them, they are sweet lookin. you need a road trip to mich to ride the hillclimb at silver lake. Quote
87sheerips Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 nice write up Tyler, and I apprecite you being patient with a multi-week turnaround for this project. But, they did turn out nice and I am glad to have been able to help you out. These are available to order, and will fit most bikes im sure with minor modifications on your end. I can provide you with a print to see how they will work with your machine. Obviously they are currently designed to mount up to ROLL pegs, but I can move the bolt hole locations for you upon request. $250 shipped for the pair, any color PC, netting not included. Maybe Tylers Gma can hook you up? Thanks again, -JD 1 Quote
special06shee Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Looks like a very nice design and finished product. I might need to invest in a set. Quote
2strokeshees Posted April 23, 2013 Report Posted April 23, 2013 Looks like a solid setup JD, nice job. Quote
