December 26, 201510 yr Santa brought me a set of the 4rt Jitsie footpeg hangers yesterday which I'm using in conjunction with the S3 HardRock footpegs which I bought from BVM Moto recently. I measured the standard brackets against the Jitsie ones and there seemed to be approximately 20mm of offset towards the rear of the bike which I was well happy with. The hangers look really strong and well made and there was a noticeable increase in grip whilst riding in very muddy conditions today probably because they are set so much further back. The only problem I had when fitting were the pegs needed some filing down so they would sit level on the hangers, without filing they pointed upwards quite a lot and pointed back, but this was only a five minute job so overall I'm very pleased with the set up now. I used to fit Raptor pegs and hangers on my Beta's and last Mont but I have seen quite a few broken frames as the Raptors are so strong its easier to break the frame than the pegs or hangers and considering I'm far from a tidy rider I'm hoping this combination will have some degree of give to bend or break.
