well i don't have them and i have only slipped off a few times, once i hade to pull my foot out from undernieth the axle the other times...ball crusher..ahahah no i am planning on welding on some custom nerfs so i can still use the manual reverse,my feet applied to front tires. that and my buddy just got some on his 400ex and they seem a little low to the ground and a little weak, then again he did buy tusk.

 

Alba makes a really nice set that has built in heal guards!

The Alba set is also the ONLY true 'Bolt-on' type, that requires no drilling of any type. They are designed speciffically for the Z400

So the DG bars are NOT a bolt on for an 89 lt250 r. I have to drill into the frame???

 

I have never installed them, but from what i understand, all nerf bars except the Alba's require drilling to install.

Again i have not installed any, but from what i have read about several different one's, every one required drilling.

amen to that.i have the steel dg nerfs.very sturdy.

 

I don't know about the Z but I put nerfs on my LT that aren't even meant for a Suzuki and I didn't have to drill the frame. I think all nerfs to the peg bracket and with U-bolts around the frame in front of the engine, I can't imagine why you would have to drill anything.

 

you dont have to drill a thing!!!!

they eathier clamp to the frame or use existing bolt holes.....

Noooo drilling

 

This is quoted from the Suzuki Factory Nerf Bar's Installation..

"The nerfs come with templates for drilling your foot pegs." ... "Attach the nerf bars through the newly drilled holes in the foot pegs.
" ... "The front of the nerfs attach with a cross bar and a couple of u-bolts around the frame."


That is the drilling i was refering to. There have been atleast 2 other brands of nerf bars that i have read similar installation instructions..


*Shrug* This is just the information i have read.

drilling in the footpegs may be required (if the holes arent there from the factory)(holes have always been there for me)

you wont have to drill the frame

 

*Shrug* My only point was that the Alba Nerf's say you don't need to drill ANYTHING. I am pretty sure from what i have seen the Alba's don't mount to the peg's at all.

1/2 a dozen one or the other. The Alba's are nice though, because they come with a built in heel guard.
