O.K. I seen these thingy-ma-bobs on a couple of bikes , foot pegs for the person on the rear and a back rest that bolted to the rack. i guess my searching skills aint very good!

If you're talking about a backrest like the one on my Rincon...
Don't buy any brand but the San Angelo backrest.It's made far better than the others.

I have the ride-n-rest and like it just fine. The main reason i got that one is because its made out of aluminum, so I wouldn't have something rusting on my bike.

That makes sense...but I've actually stood on mine when in deep water,and I don't know how the aluminum would like my 200 pound butt on it.lol.

Yeah i hear you there but i will say its pretty stout. I was riding wheelies one time and came up a bit to far and the bars (that mount it) hit the ground, dranging them a lil ways, cause i had it slid back, and didnt really bend them much!!!

Mine hang about 6" past my rack...and have a piece of aluminum plate mounted to the bottom of them that my cooler is mounted to.
It does make a pretty good "wheelie bar".lol.

LOL thats cool. I think another good thing about them is my "trail" cooler fits perfect inbetween them, so it holds it from going side to side better. I got mine cause i was tierd of the G/F trying to pull me off when poping wheelies, now i dont know what i would do with out it!!!

The ones Im wanting are just footpegs I dont really like the look of the fender gaurds. I seen some that just bolt to the floor boards. I belive they are made by kimpex or something like that.

The only floor board mounted rear footpegs I've seen are the factory ones offered on the 2-up Popo's and Canned Hams.

I have a set of the Tamarak foot pegs you can have; just pay the shipping. I replaced them with the Bison fender guard/passenger foot pegs (can be found on ebay).

I got some on my rancher, dont ask me who made them because I don't remeber. But I did get them at the popo dealer, but they were made for a Honda.

If you guys are intrested I'm sure I can find out who makes them and give you the info PM me.

Let me know if you want em outdrsmn82. Shipping to you will be approx. $11, so make it an even $20. Does that sound fair (if they fit your bike)?
