Heads up on 2014 Sprocket Cover

Will do. I just installed the cover, a pair of Ohlins, and MotoGear Ti cat free headers. I've been unable to ride for 3 months due to snow and a muddy driveway. Tires were nearly 20 lbs low from sitting! Heading out for my first Spring ride!

Wow your bike just keeps getting better and better.

So are you going with concrete or blacktop on the driveway?

Here's a crappy picture I just took of the 2014 aluminum sprocket cover. Takashi supplied 3 free silver bolts .

I secured the bottom bolt with a stainless nut and lock washer on the back side of the cover to fill the mounting hole. The 2 top bolts required a couple of washers on the front side. Without them the bolts stopped just short of full contact with the cover.



The cover looks a lot better in person. Nice rounded edges - this is the cover all CB1100s deserve.

Thanks for the info and the pic, CB4ME. Your bike looks great!

I'm gonna have to think about it, I'm a little nervous about that missing bolt. Let us know how it's working out.

Thanks again

Footpegs are made by SP TAKEGAWA. You can view them on Webike but I got mine at Samurider. 9500 yen

These pegs are designed to provide about 1/2” of forward, rearward or upward adjustment. Anything downward requires cutting off or filing a tiny hardened rolled pin from each peg and filing a notch in the pegs to accommodate the main bolt. Doing so will allow full 360 degree movement.

The retracted side stand hits the left peg when they are in the full down position. I adjusted mine as shown, about 0.4” down and 0.4” forward. The side stand loop barely touches the peg, but the peg covers the side stand. Instead, I push against the tip of the side stand to lower it. This is very easy and natural to do.



I absolutely love these pegs. They are precision made, look great, are comfortable and provide superior grip. It may not look like it, but they provide a noticeable improvement in ride comfort. I consider these pegs well worth the price and the small amount of modification needed to fit in a lower position. If you just want to raise your pegs or move them forward or rearward, they are good to go right out of the box.
