I've watched many videos on footpeg removal and installation, and this is by far the best. Despite using a GoPro, you filmed in a way that the viewer could easily see what you did. Good job!
I opted for the factory rally footpegs to replace the standard ones on my 2021 1290 SAR and found them superb - not bothered about rubber inserts although KTM do do some for these
I did wonder how good the factory ones would be. Not entirely sure why I didn't go for them originally, maybe it was the price. I'd want the rubber inserts as I do quite a lot of long riding. Glad you like them!
Yo man, I have the same ones on my GS. I never noticed an increase in vibs, been on for 12,000 plus miles. For me they are great, I much prefer a wider a little lower foot peg. I have their adjustable shift lever also... as you Brit's say, its a great piece of kit!
Love them! They are great aren't they! I think the increase in vibes might be because the stock KTM ones are well damped because its a vibey engine. So might be more the bike!
Got them set up on my Africa Twin and the vibration thing is indeed there ! I believe the problem comes from the bolt and its washer, as the stock one is tighter and this one is not. I'll see if I can tune it up to make it tighter, because I believe that transmits microvibrations to the footpegs a sthey have a bit of room. Great video man ! Loved it!
Great review, i'm sure they'll perform well off road and they look chunky. Yep, too much salt chucked on the roads this time of year, cant afford not to hose down after every outing; ACF50 is great but not infallible !
I'm hoping they will be much better off road! Only one way to find out! I've just coated her in XCP Rust Blocker so hoping that will do well too. Salt is a killer for our beautiful beasts!
Sam, are these specifically made for the SAS or are they generic? I'm looking to get a set but don't see an option for the KTM other then the EVO model?
They are technically model specific but have versions for each manufacturer - They do them for Honda, Triumph, BMW etc. For the '21 SAS, you have to search for the KTM V2 Adventure. They also have models for KTM if you search for ION footpegs
@@SamVBikes Thanks for the reply Sam. I located them. Keep up the good work. I picked up my SAS in May this year and have been really enjoying the miles this season. Looking at a few things to upgrade over the winter as I plan to do a few rallies next year. What boots are you wearing? I generally wear the Alpinestars Toucan boots and feel the room around the shift lever to be lacking. That is one of the reasons for these pegs.
No problem! Glad you're enjoying the bike! I've got 2 pairs, because I can't say no haha! My adv boots are the Sidi Adventure 2's which I love, and the more casual ones are the Daytona AC Classics which are amazing things. Super comfortable!
Still really like them. Much more comfortable to rest on. They are definitely more vibey than the stock ones on this bike at least, but I only notice it when I think about it if that makes sense
I had a set of SW Motech footrests on my old bike and they were brilliant. Made a big difference. Can you do a video on how you've changed the display from the standard road mode to rally mode? I've been RTFM-ing and cannot figure out how to change the display in to the rally layout when the bike is in road mode.
Great aren't they! Really make a big difference! Have you got the Tech Pack on your bike? I think it's part of the extras that come in that. It's the same screen as changing from Sport, Street, Rain etc, there's another option which is Rally
Let me know if you can't find it and I'll make a quick vid. It needs to be in Rally riding mode. Then you can have different settings for the suspension and throttle response.
Sam , i have set of these from my 20 reg sas , when i fit them to my 21 sas in the lower position the side stand hit them have you noticed that also have you got the part number buddy Cheers craig
Hi Craig, I haven't noticed them hit but I have them in the higher position so not sure if that makes the difference. I'll check the clearance next time I ride the bike to see if I think it would hit but I think the side stand is a lot lower down
I have SAS envy and garage envy. I love the orange stripes on the wheels. Did you do those? Anyway I want this bike so bad. And yes curbs. cheers from America.
Haha! Thank you! The wheel decals are from www.Kanoxide.com - they are SuperDuke R stickers but fit on this too with a little trimming! Thanks for watching
Sam, stop buying things for the huligan, I already ordered the crash guard,side stickers,light protection, radiator protection! And now I have to get these sw-motech things :))) I hate you (kidding) 1 qq, have you managed to find another clutch lever (Extender), I mean the little thing that sticks out is quite small for my foot, I have miss shifted a couple of times, I don't know how they are called in English.
Hahaha! Sorry dude! These things are shiny and it makes me want them! Ha! I haven't yet. I know SW Motech do a brake extender so I will have a look to see if they have a bigger gear lever one too
They were odd to get used to at first, but I do like them! Way more comfortable and easier to stand up on. They do vibrate more than the stock ones on this bike

Thank you, appreciate that! Hoping to get a better camera to film as the Gopro is far from perfect to film intricate details! Thanks for watching
Thx, I had been considering these pegs.
I really like them!
I ordered these pegs for my CB500X, thanks for that zip tie tip, I'm going to do that! :)
Haha saves a few swear words!
Thanks you for your video mate.
Great info , planning on getting a 2021 SAS in no short part thanks to your video.
Cheers from Australia
No problem! Thank you for watching and let me know if you get one!
Man I love this channel
Thanks dude!
Love that 1290. One day, one day.
Haha! One day I will tempt you across to the dark side
@@SamVBikes I bought myself a tiger 1200 for now. So I'm on the way.
Ahhh good man! My dad has done the same. Which model did you go for?
Good review and nice set of footpegs, Sam. I would go with them if I had a suitable bike, great for big feet too
Cheers bud! I really like them. Give you a really nice surface area!
Sidewalk liners!?! 😂

Are those same height as the stock ones without the rubber inserts?

How much do you love that ktm ?? Im thinking of buying ine
My friends hate how much I tell them I love it 😂 done 27k miles and it's brilliant!
A question, are these pegs able to be set lower than the standard KTM ones ? I desperately need extra leg room
Yes! There are 2 positions, the higher one is close to the standard height. The lower position is lower
@@SamVBikes Top man, thank you.
Unfortunately KTM’s are big in size but not at all in seating position. I’m looking to purchase an 1290 R but needs to adjust almost everything 😕
I got the impression you didn't like these footpegs after you mounted them?
They were odd to get used to at first, but I do like them! Way more comfortable and easier to stand up on. They do vibrate more than the stock ones on this bike
@@SamVBikes Interesting, thanx!
