any body out there got any idea how I can extend the f.w controls on my virago 535 K reg, I live in Blackpool Uk, I was going to chop them & weld a piece in & extend the control rods, would this be ok to do or is there any body out there got any other ideas? :mellow:

Personally I'm not a fan of cut and welding for controls also consider the impact on the value of the bike if you cut pegs off and re-weld them else where.

The best way to do it is to put on a 'foward controls' kit this will bring the foot pegs and controls further forward on the bike, which is a big help to talker riders.

Heres a couple.
