MXA PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: WORKS CONNECTION OFFSET ALUMINUM YZ-F FOOTPEG MOUNTS

Works Connection’s new aluminum offset footpeg mounts have the same great features as our Titanium mounts, but at a lower retail price ($199.95 versus $349.95). The all-new aluminum mounts share the same offset (7mm down and 5mm back) as Works Connection’s titanium mounts, but that’s the only thing that stays the same. Works Connection’s all-new aluminum mounts are re-engineered,and material was added in different places on the mounts to ensure strength and longevity.

The Yamaha YZ250F/YZ450F’s cockpit (rider triangle) is a little cramped. The distance from seat to pegs is shorter than on other bikes, which requires more effort to transition from sitting to standing. Works Connection’s aluminum offset footpeg mounts open up the cockpit by moving the pegs down 7mm and back 5mm. Plus, they are 42% lighter than stock mounts. These very calculated measurements to open up the cockpit, while still allowing a good feel for the rear brake pedal and shift lever.

The kit consists of (2) aluminum footpeg mounts (left and right), (2) Titanium pins, (2) Stainless washers and (2) Cotter pins. You can use any Yamaha compatible footage you prefer with Works Connection’s footpeg mounts—stock or aftermarket. The retail price is $199.95 at www.worksconnection.com.
