I have disassembled my pegs/levers/brackets this weekend (doing some black-out work, news later on another post). Anyhow, I noticed that the weights on the footpegs are quite heavy, I was surprised.
Now I know that these are supossed to be to reduce vibration but I want to know if anyone else has removed these and what the result was. Afterall, no racing peg or replacement peg/rearset of any kind has weights on them. What gives? Should I remove them or not? Sure is an easy way to remove some dead weight.
Ok, I just weighed them, and they are not as heavy as they feel (only 1.5lbs for both). Well they still look stupid.
