HarleyJay Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Would worn pegs be an MOT fail ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted August 8, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 8, 2014 More info needed. If they are loose or the rubbers have perished then yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 As above, you can't have bare metal pegs I'm afraid on a road bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator mervin Posted August 8, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 8, 2014 My TDR 250 has metal pegs on front , none on rear , passes evrytime no problem , but i reckon if they are designed to have rubbers they must have em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyJay Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 My left side one is worn and scuffed not to the degree of showing metal, I'd upload a picture but not sure how ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevinp4966 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 As above, you can't have bare metal pegs I'm afraid on a road bike. Question time then... My bike has bare metal pegs both rider and pillion, so my question would be how that works?? I'm aware that if the rubbers are perished on rubber mounted pegs its an mot failure didn't know about the rest though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I have metal pegs on my bike, and she passes every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I think it's a case of if they had rubbers then they need to be in good condition if not then it's not a problem, my Suzi had all metal pegs and that passed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 From http://www.motuk.com/Motorcycle%20MOT.asp The FOOTRESTS must have an anti-slip surface Although http://www.motuk.co.uk/mcmanual_620.htm just says a missing or insecure footrest is a reason for failure. Personally, I've had metal studded pegs on my bikes for years and never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
