Why Puig Motorcycle Footpegs Are Better Than Stock
If you are anything like the vast majority of motorcycle riders, your motorbike will be your pride and joy and it is then only natural that you will want to get the best out of it.
There are many aftermarket accessories that allow you to do just that and a new set of footpegs is no different, upgrading the performance, functionality and comfort of your motorcycle and helping you gain maximum enjoyment when you hit the roads.
In this case, it is not just any old motorcycle footpegs, it is in fact, Puig’s footpegs under the spotlight. So, what do they have to offer and why are they better than stock footpegs?
How Do Puig Footpegs Improve My Motorcycle?
As motorcycles come with a set of stock footpegs already installed, a new set is unlikely to have been high on your list of priorities and you might not have considered upgrading them. After all, footpegs are just footpegs right? Well, that is not the case and Puig’s footpegs may change your opinion completely.
These motorcycle footpegs increase functionality through enhanced stability, comfort and grip. They can be rotated for a greater lean angle than the motorbike’s original footpegs which in turn, allows you to find the best positioning for your riding style and increases comfort. Not only that, the improved angle combined with a larger contact area also helps to achieve maximum grip, resulting in increased stability and allowing you to feel safe throughout your journey.
Sold in pairs, Puig’s footpegs come with adaptors included and are available for rider and passenger alike with standard, 20mm offset and 40mm offset options to choose from. In fact that is a huge selling point as not only can you feel comfortable, safe and secure, but so too can the pillion on the back of your motorcycle.
Do Puig Footpegs Look Better Than Standard Footpegs?
It is not only comfort and functionality that allow Puig motorcycle footpegs to claim a place as an upgrade on stock motorcycle footpegs, they also boast significant aesthetic enhancements. Whether it is complimenting the existing appearance of the motorbike or creating an eye-catching look, these footpegs have something to offer everyone in the way of aesthetics.
With an array of footpegs styles and colour options, their footpegs are one of many ways Puig provide customisation for your motorcycle. A particular type of Puig footpeg or a splash of colour means you can add a touch of personalisation to what would be an otherwise naked area of the motorbike.
If colour is not your thing, Puig also offer their footpegs in black which may also match the bike’s existing aesthetic whilst providing a clean, modern look. There really is an option for everyone!
Are Puig Footpegs Easy To Install & Use?
It is all well and good talking about the benefits of Puig footpegs and what they have to offer, but that all becomes rather redundant if you cannot actually use them. Luckily, Puig make their footpegs as straightforward to install and use as possible.
As these footpegs come with adaptors included, they can be a straight swap for the motorcycle’s stock footpegs. The adaptors allow them to be fitted to the original mounting points once the standard footpegs have been removed. All that is required is positioning the footpegs on the motorbike, swivelling them to find the best positioning and then simply tightening them in place for a process that can be completed in minutes.
Now that we are all a bit better acquainted with Puig’s motorcycle footpegs, are they really worth the expense of upgrading from stock footpegs?
Without hesitation, the answer is yes. The list of benefits certainly justify digging out that wallet and parting with a bit of cash. In fact, a new set of Puig footpegs will bring increased comfort, stability and grip whilst also looking the part. What more could you ask for!
