Thanks, but I was looking at the ones "Danr" posted earlier. The ones posted above are Lindby's right?

If there is anyone out there who has this...I would apprciate if you could post a picture....
Thanks......
The lindby's come in two styles, L-801-1's don't have the flip out pegs.
Personaly I like these best, they already have built in foot rest, why have flip-out too?

Danr & POE_BOY_SAMICH, Thanks for the info! Whew! I've got 40 inches of clearance from end of deck step to inside fence post on the opposite side. Will just have to take it slow thru there.

Anyone know how comfortable the "Lindby's" are to use as foot rests. They seem kind of high.

I'm also looking at buying the Lindby bar (this is how I found this thread). There is a picture at Dennis Kirk which is where I was shopping for them:

Has anyone installed them and knows whether there is too much vibration to use the pegs?

Will the Lindby bars fit the M50? If so, where is the best place to buy them?

For people who like the looks of the OEM but want more protection without the elephant ear look, get the Show chrome, they stick out a little bit more than OEM and have a great look.

All C50s have the same floorboards - so any C50 engine bar will fit. The Suzuki OEM engine guards are really little things - most people go for the Cobra bar.

Yes, Lindby's fit on the M50. I love the look myself, and the foot rests are pretty comfortable.

Get them through Xtreme Dave, you won't be disappointed.

anyone out there have pics of the ShowChrome engine guards mounted on a C50? I'm thinking these are the ones I want but would like a better look at them first.

Also, anyone have pegs mounted on them, and is this a comfortable setup?
