efe frame , original placement of footplates

[busa ash]

i have just bought an efe from Eblag , its been on there for months .

its non standard and i want too put on the standard foot plates back on it as i think they are part of the efe s look 

it has non standard rear sets slingy or why ?

i have a replacement swingarm and intend to have the paintwork re done in winter 

 

[busa ash]

the original foot plate mounts have been chopped off

john boy its a fred in a shed in that picture i have removed the end can as it was horrible , the headers are micron held with springs possibly from a gsxr wp ?

[busa ash]

also have this to sort the rear end 

 

[busa ash]

and incase i need it later in its life

Nice find.

i think they removed the original footrest because of clearance issue of the rear brake master AND the swing arm.

DnD has resolved that by moving the mounts outward.

 

I too had to jiggle with the mount when fitting a R1 swinger in my long sold EF.

As above; original footplates with a GSXR swingarm doesn't work because the later swingarm is a fair bit wider, especially a WP-item.

However, the mounts for the original plates is as straightforward as they come, so easily sorted.

I have 1 original peg mount and I'm pretty sure a mate has a pair if you're stuck

Ye, The mounting tabs on mine were cut off.

Need to weld some new one back on. Anyone got a close up of the tab, is there a threaded boss on the back of them ?

Cheers.

[B2BC]

i have a perfect right hand complete , and a left hand oplete but its been welded would prefer it too be replaced . 

[1260EF]

I'll let you know tomorrow which one I have. Guaranteed to be same side as yours 

[Duckndive]

I think you'll find that the bottom bolt on the sling5hit hangers is thru the original hangers centre hole.....so you will need to add top and bottom tabs......biggest issue is brake link age tight on swinger...

Ooooh and the hangers use metric fine bolts........not that it will affect any new tabs you add....
