There was a post yesterday, maybe on another site where a clip on a pillion peg was missing and noticed during a yearly inspection.
I went out this morning and checked our foot pegs.

I think the pegs are the weakest link in the 'delivery checklist' at the shop or they miss it among the whole thing.

Prior to going to my first 1000km service I noticed some rush or smearing appearing from within the peg and they were starting to squeak - doubtful they were lubricated but mine were secured.
Noted it down when taking it in this week and they sorted them out without surcharge.

I was informed that circlip was missing on my last MOT. I guess they just don't make circlips like they used to?!?
