Passenger Pegs

Last weekend I made a run down to South Florida and back (401 miles) on my 2016 Suzuki DR650S. I had my Givi E26N-S Top Box mounted on the rear luggage rack and during the ride I noticed that my back was touching the front of the top case on many occasions. No big deal, of course. It's just a short seat. However, doing a little work on the bike today the passenger foot pegs caught my attention and I was thinking, based on my ride experience last week, there's no way a passenger is ever going to fit on this bike.

And with that went 2 1/4 pounds of dead weight!

Here's a link to a thread from the DR Owners Forum on The Making of A Lighter DR650.
