WHY THE EXPERTS LOVE THEM (and Everyone Else Needs Them)—
We’ve long been fans of oversized footpegs. The additional control they give your bike, and the increased comfort while standing, make their design a no-brainer for any serious rider.
DESIGN NOTES
Measuring a massive 2.5-inches wide by 4.5-inches long, our Platform Footpegs provide an extremely stable base from which to control your bike—even over the gnarliest terrains. Their rugged design is cut from aircraft-grade aluminum, and like cat claws on a carpet, precision cut traction cleats provide a grip that’ll hold you on the pegs. They’re extremely lightweight, too, at only 8 oz. each.
To make assembly a breeze, an ingenious installation pin is included with each set of footpegs. If you’ve ever fought the return spring while installing footpegs, you’ll know why this tool is worth its weight in GOLD!
And just for fun, a handy BOTTLE OPENER is built into each peg for convenient access to your favorite cold beverage after a long day’s ride.
FITMENT
This version of the BDCW Platform Footpegs fit the following models:
* BMW R9T Scrambler
* BMW R9T Urban GS
NUTS, BOLTS AND BENEFITS
Enlarged Size
These pegs are 2.5-inches wide x 4.5-inches long and weigh 8 oz. each. They greatly improves control of bike—its like adding power steering!
Greater Comfort
Not only is the surface space bigger on these, we have lowered the pegs 1/2-inch giving your knees a much needed break. Standing up is so much less fatiguing with the large platform distributing your weight.
Superior Material and Design
These pegs are milled out of Tough aircraft-grade aluminum alloy. The teeth on our Platform Footpegs are flat which provide a perfect balance between traction and wear & tear on the soles of your riding boots. For more traction in wet conditions,
Easy Installation
We are the only company we know of that provide an special “installation pin” which greatly simplifies installation. We also provide replacement cotter pins – no trips to the hardware store required. 5 minute install time.
Looks "Badass" on Every Bike
In addition to its superior appearance, there is a Built-in bottle opener on the bottom of each peg. Handy when popping your favorite beverage at the end of the trail or around the campfire.

No bones about it, we manufacture all of our Black Dog products right here in the U.S.—supporting the local craftsmen, materials and machinery. We have world class manufacturers in our own back yard and we are committed to supporting our local economy which is extremely important to us. We feel supporting the U.S. manufacturing base has never been more important.

All of our own products are rigorously tested on our personal bikes BEFORE they’re released. Our innovative and rugged designs are used throughout the world—a fact that we’re very proud of. We make no pretense that we’re the cheapest, but, you can be sure that BDCW products are the best made, and that we stand behind them.
WHAT RIDERS ARE "BARKING" ABOUT
Check out what satisfied BDCW customers and industry editors and experts are saying.
From MOTORCYCLIST magazine:
“Finally floorboards for adventure bikes! Not really but that was my first thought after installing the BDCW Adventure Footpegs on our BMW F800GS test bike. These things are HUGE, but wow, do they work awesome. The edges are cleated with a medieval castle pattern that gives great grip in the mud, and after two months of use they have not left any excessive wear marks on the soles of my boots. And, for those that like multi- functional equipment, each footpeg even has a bottle opener milled into the bottom. How’s that for bragging rights around the campfire?! No question, these babies are two thumbs up!!"—BT
From ADV MOTO magazine:
"Black Dog Cycle Works’ KTM footpegs are a winner. I knew just after purchasing my KTM 990R that I was going to have to replace the footpegs because they were too darn small. The light and tough BDCW footpegs are made of aircraft aluminum and installation was a snap. Within ten minutes, the Black Dog footpegs were mounted and ready for testing using nothing more than a pair of pliers,
"The foot print measures 2.5-inches wide x 4.5-inches long which I found to be ample real estate for my size 13 boots and a large improvement over the stock footpegs. Cueing the bike by applying pressure to these beauties really enhanced handling on single track, high speed sand whoops and on extended highway jaunts. The large surface area covered with traction cleats offers a secure feeling while standing, especially in technical sections. Traction was excellent against my smooth sole adventure boots.
"While hanging out after a full day of riding, almost everyone commented on how these new units look–nothing like a little understated bling on an adventure bike. The built in bottle opener located on the bottom side of the footpegs made for a nice conversation piece and came in handy for few riders opening their favorite bottled beverages before discussing the day’s ride.
"If you have a KTM adventure bike and can’t quite get comfortable on the machine because the stock footpegs are too small then consider the Black Dog Cycle Works offering."
From the Dog Pound (satisfied Black Dog riders):
“These are fabulous footpegs. The incremental size increase and the grip of the peg makes for a very comfortable and responsive addition. And made in the U.S.A. Looks great on a German bike. Tough!!”—HD Steve (ADV Rider blog)
“Your footpegs are awesome. Your pics on the website don’t do them justice. Attached a pic that should be included.”—Evan Hill
“I just installed your footpegs. You are awesome. WOW, really nice pegs. Great satisfaction, my bike has most of your accessories.”—Jose “Pepe” Trueba
“The new pegs work well with my short legs—allows me to gain better position while standing up, and a big plus was the right foot is able to move out on the peg from the exhaust just enough to get some much needed air that area. Keep up the good work.”—Scott Moulden
“Just installed my BDCW footpegs. I don’t know exactly what I was expecting, but these pegs are Really Great! Better than I imagined! Easy install on my F800GS (10 minutes with distractions, like—trying out the bottle opener).”—Fractalsource (ADV Rider blog)
“Had your pegs on my 690 for a few months and about 7,000km of Adv riding. Nathan at Revsport Inc. added them to my order last year. Wish I had got them in 2012. They allowed me to stand for 5 straight days of 500km each day over some aggressive Adv sections to complete the rally. I'm 57 and my feet used to ache but not now with your platform pegs :)) Keep sending those great articles too. I will get to USA to ride!” Tim Ritchie, Tasmania Australia
“I’m very impressed by both the design and finish of these pegs and am looking forward to standing on them. I’ve got X's peg extensions on my SE and Duke. Nice kit, no doubt, but this is the next step.”—Bob Stallard, CA
“Got ‘em yesterday and threw them on. Rode it to work this morning on the dirt roads in the rain. They are NICE. Lots of grip, and no more fumbling around to find the peg with my arch while catching the brake at the same time. The added surface area gives you more options for foot placement too. I don’t notice much difference while standing, but they do feel better on the knees. Hopefully, I’ll get a long day ride in before it gets too cold. Great product-worth the wait.”—David Lena, VT
