Ducati MH900e Foot Peg Brackets...Home Brewed

At 5' 10" - 5' 11" I fit quite well on the bike, but it seemed to me that I'd like my feet a bit lower. So...
.
Flat bar, digital caliper, drill press, angle grinder, bench grinder, belt sander, and Rustoleum Sunset Red.

Very well done - looks factory. I should do this on my 900 SS.

Good advice...just learning the bike, Richard...watching my 170 'chicken strips'.
I'm too old to be leaning enough to catch a peg...so far, anyway.
Might stub a toe or two, though.
One of these nights, maybe have to be midnight, if it cools off much I'll take her out for a trial run.

Thanks gents.

peter...tried 4 different red colors from the garage. Lucky to hit it, eh?

Jeff...just remove the rubber foot pad and grind down the outer lip. Gain about an inch of leg room without compromising ground clearance. The PO of my 900SS did that and it's very comfortable. Rode her 130 miles today with no pain.
