Created an account just to say this. I'm tall, so I have front pegs and rear pegs. Both JDM. Was taking a test run after rejetting and hit a speed bump and my foot fell off and dragged under my back pegs. Trip to the ER right after. Nerve damage and an inch above slicing through my achilles. My dirt bike friend thinks I'm crazy for having solid pegs, but it's so common on the Ruckus. And JDMs are sharp like spears, which makes it worse. So I got folding pegs for the back. And this is just a warning to everyone out there. Be careful. Sorry, the pic is gruesome. But it is a warning after all. Attachments:

man that sucks!
Yeah some people who mod the ruckus, and who make mods for the ruckus, really shouldn't be doing it. Solid pegs belong on only one type of motorcycle: The race bike (with rearsets).
The rearsets will break ebfore they tear through racing boots in most occasions. Solid pegs are unacceptable. Thanks for sharing though! Hopefully word gets out, it's quiet around these parts

Yeah, solid pegs are real dumb (in hindsight). I put some folding billet pegs on, but haven’t found a single one made for the Ruckus and that giant hole in the frame. Hoping they fold up enough to not kill me. There’s some stubby, rubber pegs called Gojin, but they are sold out everywhere. Bought some from a company called Emgo. Not made for Ruckus, but we’ll see. I’ll post my results.
