Only a new member, so hi to everyone.
Probably a old question, but I'm wanting to purchase a pair of "tip over guards" and Highway pegs for my ST1300 any help would be great.
Cheers GC

Motorcycle Larry (MCL) in the USA is a supplier of great quality accessories for the ST. Follow this link to their range of ST1300 bits and bobs. Quite a few of us are using MCL products and I have a set of their highway pegs.

Risers, Seat modification and After Market Screen seem to the holy trinity of mods that many have done to improve the comfort of the ST1300.

Thanks SP
They seem to be out of stock all the time and they haven't replied to my emails.
I've tried to contact them for 2 weeks now, hence my post here. I thought someone may have had some for sale.
I've even tried wreckers etc..

See attached photo of rear tip over bars,
I believe the are from a 1500 goldwing , Needed a bit of a tweak to make the mounting holes line up but other wise very cheap and satisfactory.

Here's some highway pegs that are an alternative to MCL. http://www.ridingiswonderful.com/page26.php

Biggles · « **Reply #7 on:** October 22, 2017, 12:39:37 PM »

Those look clunky compared with the MCL design. I wonder if there's anyone in Oz who would take up the challenge to replicate the MCL pegs. I know (having met him) that Lorien Vale is an expert machinist but he's not into manufacturing.

Well thanks everyone for your help
It seems that after trying to contact MCL and speaking to some guys in the states, this is the situation.
MCL are no longer in business and I can't purchase the manufacturing jigs for any of their products.
Mick-o- products are also no longer made.
My options are very slim, but one is to try and have some manufactured here in Oz!!!
I've only been in the ST seen for 5min and hit the wall already.
Cheers everyone GC.

Hi gone cruising I fitted a set of tip over bars off an GL1800 gold wing to my ST1300
They take a little bit of wrangling and you need longer mounting bolts but it is doable

gone-cruising · « **Reply #15 on:** October 24, 2017, 07:41:56 PM »

Thanks Peter, But there don't seem to be any about here in Oz.
Only a few in the states, but the cost of freight puts them over the $200 mark.
Cheers Steve

R ok I found my on flea bay Chinese think they where $80
A mate found some at a place that did trike conversions. They take them off when they trike the wings

Thanks Dave,

I had located the goldwing tip-over bars for around $50 US + exchange rate + Freight worked out to be over $250. landed.

Then on top of that have a adapter plate made.

I have been working with a local fabricator today and will do more tomorrow and see what we can come up with.

I'll keep you all posted.

Cheers Steve

Maybe he can copy the MCL highway pegs too. They're not rocket parts.

... we're interested in whatever you come up with, as your fabricator is local for us too... cheers, John & Kate.

I have just bought a set of chrome bars and th3 mounting block adaptors from the supplier that Shiney used through PayPal and it cost around $207 AUD delivered.

I had a look at those fitted to Shiney’s bike at Wooli and was impressed, Shiney has fitted black bars while I have chosen to go with the chrome.

gone-cruising · « **Reply #22 on:** October 27, 2017, 10:10:44 PM »

Well there's no standing still here.
The manufacturing of the Tip-Over Bars "Prototype" has already been made and will be tested next week!
Pic's of them has already been sent to some members showing them in their raw state!!!
If all works out, production and photos will commence shortly after.

As for the Highway Pegs.
One of the members has been kind enough to loan us his to look over and start the project early next month.
I'll keep you posted.
Cheers Steve
