Am considering lowering the rider footrests on my LC GSA1200 for a more comfortable ride. Any suggestions what might be available to do this....
The Gilles (BMW) ones are a nice bit of kit, bought mine from a member here, good quality and when fitted your knees are less bent - really comfortable. Mine are gold and they don't really fit in with the rest of the bike. black ones look better
I´ve ordered THESE low footpegs from Wunderlich and hope to receive them this week.
Also got the ¨clever¨ gear lever and adjustable brake lever in case foot position is changed dramatically.
I've had these fitted to my 2015 GSA LC for a few years now and find them to be much more comfortable than the standard versions. Not sure how much the BMW ones lower the pegs but the Wunderlich versions are 25mm lower than standard..
SW Motech are the best IMO. They have a regular and low setting, they're nice an wide and you can easily remove the rubber toppers with a screw underneath.
Any problems with fouling of the sidestand with the Gilles version. There doesn't seem to be a lot of spare room...

I have the BMW / Gilles ones on my 2018 lowered GSA. As others have said, quality bit of kit, but as you note here, setting them on the lowest position, snags my sidestand, and won’t allow the sidestand to fully retract. (And stops starting the bike....). Setting the pegs to the mid position is fine...which is where I have mine set. The lowest peg position might be ok on a ‘standard’ GSA, but as I say, mine is a lowered suspension model.
