foot peg for yamaha trikes

[jhennan]

Has anyone added an extra footpeg to the side of the trike for getting off and on the trike. Between the front floorboard and the passenger floorboard. Coming up from under the bike off of the frame or some other part of the trike means of mounting?

Yes I have, made them for the wife so she can extend her legs on longer rides she now has the same foot rest that I do up front . came off the bottom and it bolted right on under there. used a one inch steel and had it bend up on each side then has it chrome plated. I have pictures at home if you need them. not sure what you would use them for to get on and off a trike tho :Shrug:

I'd like something like the goldwings have to get on and off theres. It is there normual foot peg for there feet to rest on while shifting. Just something that would make it easier to get on and off, now that the bike sits upright, and the wife will be driving it to.

I've made a small step pad for the wife to make it eaier for her getting on and off the bike. I used a small brake pedal rubber mounted on a steel bracket. Located it where the exhaust pipes fastened. Kind of hard to explain so will take a pic of them tomorrow.
In use she steps first on the pad with her right foot, rising up setps on the passenger floorboard with her left foot, & then swings the right leg over the seat and settles down on the pillion when mounting from the left side.
