2 Primary Mick-O-Peg models are available. Model K12O (formerly called Model O) now utilizes our 3 piece clamping system. Here's a detailed review of both models in 2006: http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4847&highlight=Mick-O-Pegs

RECALL was announced in November 2006 for owners of Model K12O (O) to swap to a stronger clamp. If your Model O has 2 bolts mounting each bracket, you have the modified crash (tip over) bars. But if you have 3 bolts holding each bracket, you have our clamp system and should give us a call to receive your replacements.

providing the same foot position as K12N.

Once the K12O is mounted

the last step is to cut a notch in your plastic.

When a Mick-O-Peg equipped K1200LT tips/falls over, expect the tip of our "peg" to touch first. The "leg" will flex the "peg" up and in until the black plastic, which covers the tip over bar, hits the ground. At about the same time, the bottom edge of the Mick-O-Peg "cover" will hit the ground. Your tip over bar is pushed up by the weight of the bike but when our cover hits, it tends to pull your bar down. A great design to reduce the likelyhood of bending your bar, but since our clamp is on the front of your bar, it doesn't stop the back (longer end) from bending.

If you choose to mount "J" Pegs upside down (on top of your tip over bars) ask about Model K12OJ.

If you intend to use "J" Pegs in addition to Mick-O-Pegs...

If you already have Highway Ottomans

a notch gets removed from their 'strap'.



If you currently have Highway Ottomans with their modified tip over bars, you can mount Model K12O also by grinding some of their strap that is welded to your tip over bar. If you don't already have their modified tip over bar but want to have two very different options for your legs, ask for their system that utilizes our Model K12O 3 piece clamping system.

We also have Model K12NS and K12OS intended for Short riders. The K12NS/K12OS models limit our "peg" to drop 2" less. Most who can still ride the LT as a two wheeler will find Model K12N/K12O comfortable. If you are about 5'6" with a stock seat, you may find Model K12N/K12O puts too much pressure on the inside of your thighs unless your goal is to relieve knee problems by straightening your legs. You have 90 days to decide but if you want to speed the process, order both at the same time, try them, return one set (your S&H will be about $10) and we'll quickly refund the full price of that returned set.

NOTE: Until May 10th 2006, Model O included a set of modified crash (tip over) bars that replaced the stock crash bars. The newer Model K12O will use a clamp system instead of a set of modified bars.

A RECALL has been issued for those Model K12O (0) clamps sold prior to November 2006.
