Has anyone put skid pegs on the MP3? Our MP3 250 keeps falling over and I am tired of replacing the plastic. Something sturdy attached to the frame might save me a lot, but I am at a loss as to how to do it.

Thanks in advance for the help and advice.

Pegs are for when the bike goes down in motion. suspension lock is to keep it from falling down. Hope this helps.

I think it would be difficult and have never heard of them on the market for an mp3 but it seems someone here was attempting to fabricate something but I can't remember who.

Wait here it is. Back when G03 was new. Guards ?

Richard,

I have to agree with Road Captain, when does the MP3 tip over? Is your tilt lock not working properly? Please give some examples.

Sincerely,

spartan

On the MP3 250 there is no place to attach them near the top. On the 500 there is metal to attach it to, but I bet it would bend the first drop.

I think the fix is to stop it from falling over.

Like others have asked, why is it falling over? If it is operator error, maybe you need to take an MFS Class or get a lighter bike.
