Tuning and modding » Footpeg replacement options

Hi all, I'm having footpeg failures with the OEM pegs - specifically the rubber is coming off. I'm guessing this is because I'm pressing down and twisting to change my body position.

A friend (on a R1250GSA) recommended these BMW pegs that are spring loaded, such that the rubber is supportive without much pressure, but when you press down to shift positions, the spring under the rubber compresses and the metal will bite into your boots providing grip. They look 'ok' but seem to do both jobs.

Hence, I'm wondering if anyone's fitted these or others they'd recommend. And, in particular with these, can anyone confirm they'd fit the RS?

Not what you asked but it is possible to replace the rubber although it's a faff.
The original rubber are pop riveted in place by special BMW rivets. I drilled these out and replaced the fixing mechanism with nuts epoxied in place on the metal baton that runs inside the rubber and allen head bolts which screw in from underneath.

I think the plain metal footpegs from a K12 fit straight on. See https://www.r1200rsforum.com/t2859f19-Renewing-your-footpeg-rubber-Yes-You-can-re-rivet-the-rubber-just-like-factory-but-Baby-rivets-can-be-no-joke-Some-tips.html#msg30452

Just FYI, if your bike is still under warranty they are covered.

@TriangleRider - I was wondering about warranty. Still under warranty and probably worth a shot.
@Lee - thx for pic and idea on k1200 pegs. A solid option to be sure.

I found some Puig pegs that some people like but others say their mount system is unreliable with a single screw preventing peg from rotating. Wunderich also has some spendy options but seem better engineered that Puig.

I think I’ll start w warranty and or see if I can find some k1200 pegs on eBay or forum.

I'm running the SW-MOTECH ION dual position footpegs
