Hey guys, Ryan here, and I'm excited to share our new foot pegs that we're developing with you. At Terra Moto we're currently developing a brand new set of foot pegs for the R 1250/1200 and F850/750 series. But here's the best part: we want your input and feedback to make them the best foot pegs on the market!
Our goal is to create the most customizable foot pegs on the market, allowing you to tailor them to your specific needs and riding style. We take pride in manufacturing our products in the USA, and these foot pegs are no exception.
One of the key features we've incorporated is the ability to flip the teeth inserts. On one side, you'll find an aggressive off-road-oriented tooth design, while the other side features teeth designed for street and everyday riding. This way, you won't have to compromise when deciding between buying pegs designed solely for off-road or street riding, since we all put our fair share of on and off-road miles!
In addition to the unique teeth design, we've made the foot pegs height-adjustable with three settings. The top position is 2mm lower than the standard GS foot pegs, while each subsequent position lowers the peg in 10mm increments. We wanted to give riders the freedom to experiment and choose the setting that suits them best, rather than locking them into a fixed lowered position.
To ensure durability and performance, these foot pegs will be 100% CNC machined from high-quality 6061 T6 aluminum. The size will measure 2.375"x4.25" (60x108mm). Now, here comes the fun part – we need your input on the colors! Do you prefer raw aluminum, black anodize, or hard clear anodize? Let us know your preference!
We've come up with some designs for the teeth,
To give you a better idea of the design options, we've included photos showcasing four different types of teeth designs. Each design includes four photos from different angles, so you can get a good look at the details. Here's a breakdown of the designs:
1. Traditional Off-road Style: This symmetric tooth design offers excellent grip without quickly wearing out your boots.
2. Asymmetrical Off-road Style: We've offset the pegs to provide even more customization. The inserts can be rotated 180 degrees, allowing you to position the teeth forwards or backwards. This way, you can test various configurations and find your preferred setup of how you like the peg to grip your boot.
3. Non-aggressive big teeth: This design matches the teeth machined into the foot peg itself. The teeth are large with deep grooves, but with blunt edges on top. These teeth will still offer good grip and a nice platform to stand on without destroying your everyday shoes or street booths when you're riding street miles. These would be good for street to mild off-road riding.
4. Non-Aggressive small teeth: This design would be geared toward street riding. These are all concepts and we're open to make changes!

material preference: Raw Aluminum
Footpeg preference: Non Aggressive Large Teeth
my two cents: the best pegs I’ve ever used had a spring-loaded rubber insert that dropped with body weight. ie, standing up caused the rubber to drop into the peg and expose offroad teeth around the perimeter. The beauty of the design was that you didn’t need to stop and remove anything from the peg to expose the offroad teeth. So, they worked great for both the street and offroad. I think there’s still some out there but the price is something crazy, like $700!
