The ergos are good alright with a lot of options. I do have sensitive hips and this helps nicely. I’ve got used to the low seat high on the front low at the back too. The solid footing is great.

That’s exactly it. I’m beginning to think it is purposely forward now because if it wasn’t the BMW original pegs would be well mismatched in terms of height. BMW have bigger problems it seems. All BMW motorcycles are on a sales hold in the USA & Canada. 😬.

@@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuffTwo guys I met 2 weeks ago returned their bikes to the BMW dealer and got their money back. They cited the Lemon Law here in the US. They were talking starter, electrical and camshaft issues. I only half listened because they are a couple of "Money no Object" types from NYC that are riding, driving or boating something different every time I see them. My Tiger on the other hand keeps amazing me. The only issue for me is the Center Stand. I'm strong and I have to use all I have to get the bike on it and I cannot get off the stand without help. The foot design is completely wrong because it is almost triangular in shape which makes getting over the "Hump" in either direction almost impossible. Once on the stand the rear tire is only 3/16" off the ground! I have been working on the modification design since day one. I have a new stand on order as my "Sacrificial Lamb".

I did look for BMW lowered pegs but they don't seem to sell them anymore. There was one design they made that looked well but is no longer for sale.

The bike came with the low seat and I was experimenting with a std seat to see if I could increase the legroom while still having a decent reach to the ground. That could suit a number of people but I found it a tiny bit too high for me so I had to go back to the low seat. That pushed me down the lowered peg route to make up for it. It is possible two up with luggage I might have a little extra sag and be able to use the std seat in those circumstances. Thanks for watching 👍.

@@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff Thanks for the reply. I chose the same low-chassis/std seat in the high setting, having watched one of your videos on the topic. This gives me the ideal combination - plenty of leg room for the old joints, and still easy to reach the ground AND get on and off the bike without looking too much of an idiot. For me (6' on a good day, with 32" inside leg), it's ideal from an ergonomic POV. I'm grateful for your original analysis and advice. 👍

@@richardd9976 thanks Richard. I’m 6ft but a 29” leg and use the low seat high front low back. I can see how your 32” would work very well for you with that combo. 👍

​@richardd9976 you are 6ft tall and chose the lowered version?

There's no fouling issue on a standard height GSA with the Wunderlich lowered pegs. The side stand is different.

Just the physical size & shape of them and the hole mount dimensions. Those Triumph specific ones didn’t fit at all for me, I was hoping they might of.

@@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff Another question, please, I want to fit MFW for the pillion also on my Tiger 1200. This mounting system is sturdy enough to sustain the weight of the pillion when hopping on and off the motorcycle? This system with just 2 screws and a plate worries me that it might be too fragile

@@mirceaulmeanu674 The lowered footrest position does put extra leverage on the entire footrest hanger where it bolts on to the subframe, that is true, you can see it flex a little. However, I have just tested getting on/off with my substantial 115kg and at no time did I feel like I was overwhelming anything. One thing I will note is to make sure the castellated sections of the link arms are very well seated, the bits that allow it to rotate. It is easy to tighten these up thinking they are together when in fact they are not sitting fully in the bike specific base.
