CamelADV Brace PLUS Peg Support CRF1000 (2016-2017)
NOTE – *This product is NOT compatible with the 2018 model!*
The Problem:
- We all know the Honda Africa Twin is great but like any bike, it has some weak spots.
- Unlike the bike’s beefy left side peg mount which is made of cast iron, the right side footpeg mount is cast aluminum.
- This can be problematic, especially when the bike is ridden offroad.
- It can be easily broken if it takes a hit from the front (rock, stump etc).
- It can also be snapped off if it gets hit from the bottom while dropping into a rut, while sliding even on a minor low side crash etc.
- Riding out of the back country with no right side foot peg means not being able to stand in the rough stuff.
- Even worse, it’s very difficult to use the rear brake effectively if you have no foot peg.
- This can be a real problem especially on a DCT bike that you can’t simply stall in gear to hold you position on a hill if things go badly… ask us how we know!
- While it is possible to create a much stronger peg mount bracket to replace the cast aluminum unit, a stronger bracket can put a huge amount of strain on the bikes frame in the event of a crash.
- Also, this bracket is quite complex (expensive) as it serves as the peg mount, exhaust hanger, center stand stop and rear bracket pedal pivot.
- Due to it’s large size, it’s impractical to carry a spare peg mount with you.
The Solution:
- Our laser cut 1/4″ (6.4mm) thick aluminum peg skid plate/brace and 3/16″ (4.5mm) 304 stainless steel mounting bracket
- Protects the peg mount from taking a hit to begin with but also support it making it several times stronger the stock piece on it’s own.
- The CamelADV Brace Plus strengthens the peg mount and also extends to cover the vulnerable rear section of the exhaust pipe protecting it from rock damage.
- Real world tested in the rugged Rocky Mountains!
Note: Black Dog Cycle Works pegs are incompatible with our brace due to their unique design.
