Ive looked all over. Where can I find white footrest rubbers? I like the ones that bass has(as well as everything elese on his bikes). Ive seen seen them on other bikes as well--but I cant find them anywhere?
There's a place called fox grip that makes footboard rubbers, hand grips, peg rubbers, and all kinds of other shit for just about any motorcycle make. I dont know if they have a website though, but I'm sure you could find a way to check it out.
If I put those on a bike I'd just have them as an extra set that I kept in a tool bag, to switch with for "show". Would you wipe the mud off your boots on your Wide White Walls? White foot pegs end up looking the same as the soles of your boots if you actually use them. Or maybe they make a condom to put over them so you can actually ride it without fuckin up the white rubber? They do look groovy on the right bike... Maybe with matching streamers in the ends of the handle bars?!?
I've got your streamers right here Doc. I don't know of anyone making actual Triumph footpeg rubbers in white. I used HD rubbers on both of my Triumphs. Aftermarket on the black bike, original HD on the new one. They show up on ebay every now and then. Like the Doc says however, they are really hard to keep clean. They never are truly white either...more of an off white. If someone asks you why you let them get so dirty, just punch them in the mouth. Then they won't care about your footpegs anymore.
Can ya really do that in Texas? Without getting arrested for assault and battery, and then getting your bike out of impound a week later with the foot pegs missing, I mean?
Yes. Would you like to come visit? We'll ride horses and shoot six shooters and wear ten gallon hats.
J&P cycles has most of that stuff in white. and only a goldchainer would be worried about his white rubbers getting dirty, it's called RIDING the fucking thing! FWIW, the white stuff ages fairly quickly, the rubber doesn't wear too well, if you actually ride, they'll need to be swapped out once a year or so anyways if you want it looking good. my white grips are weather checked(from being stored inside), the footpeg rubber holds up ok, the shifter peg rubber sucks.
WOW! it's just like West Hollyweird on Halloween, cept all the time??? Actually, I heard about Texas, My Dad was from Herford Texas. (He never went back there after coming home from France and England in '45 either, would dwell on it, just said there was nothin there to go back to.)
Remember the old after market White Rubber floor mats that the parts stores use to sell before all the ugly carpeted and "extreme weather mats" hit the shelves? Where to get 'em now?
yup. I ordered some bates style chrome fork covers from him a while back. Good guy... DOH! just saw cretin's post. oh well..
