    Not I. But great find! If you get them I hope to see a review so I can order them up myself.

      Hi Nate,
      good catch! Especially for XS11SG owners needing to replace their unique and totally unfindable footpeg rubbers.
      Looks like you'd have to drill or grind out the stock footpeg pivot pins to bolt in the new adapters.
      I'd say, smooth but not a straight bolt-up.

          Yeah, but do they fit and work? That's that question. If they do, I want to order a set. Heck, I may order two sets, one for my 11, and one for my 400, while those pegs are able to be found, they aren't that easy to find either, and being able to stick aftermarket pegs on would be nice.

            What I need to look into is whether the XS650 footrest will interchange with the XS1100 footrest. That will tell the tale.

            My bikes are 2500 miles away. Fred? It's on you.

            BTW, I just scored NOS SG footrest covers from N W Vintage Cycle Parts. Not unobtainium, just expensive.

              Hi Marty (the nomad?)
              AFAIK, XS650 pegs will fit in XS11 peg brackets. They won't look the same but will work OK.
              Um, how expensive? I can get those adapters and aftermarket pegs for ~$80 + postage.

                FWIW, the NOS SG covers set me back $60. I guess it was a bargain.

                  I feel lucky then...

                  Replaced my left drivers peg cover on eBay NOS for $5.99 a couple weeks ago. Now I will keep looking since they seem so scarce.

                      having a pair of stds, with high milage, the foot pegs were seriously worn,
                      so I replaced them by using the pilion peg rubbers.....
                      the difference was minor, once fitted, it was hard to tell they were not OME.
                      I had two pairs of pillion pegs which came in the box of bits with my parts bike.
                      Never thow out that box of bits, it can be very surprising what they can contain.
                      When I got the parts bike took a look at this box of bits thinking I would never need what was in there, but I have used several items so far.

                          Most any footpeg will work if you're willing to do a bit of fitting. Standard 'male' HD pegs can be made to fit if you drill the pin holes out to 3/8" and do some shimming inside the Yamaha mount. You can find nice take-offs on eBay all day for under $20.....

                              Adapters feel pretty solid.Pretty simple install except they won't fit the back mounts they are to wide or i have mounts of another bike.
                              Used 5/16 x 1 3/4 should with 2 flat washer and lock nuts.

                              The order threw scoot works went smooth and better then i expected.
