Highway Pegs DL650/DL1000
These highway pegs work great alone or in conjunction with my backrest. I've made the footpegs 3-position adjustable up and down and they fold up out of the way when not in use. Crashbars cannot be used in conjuction with highway pegs on the DL650. They fit alone or with SW Motech crashbars on the DL1000.
Cast In-Line Pegs
These custom pegs, when mounted to the highway peg sidebars, will add 1 inch forward and down as well as protruding out an additional 1 1/2 inches over the length of the standard square pegs we use. Great for taller Stromers.
For Use With MOTECH or GIVI Crashbars (DL650)
With the help of a local WeeStromer this alternate Motech crashbar-compatible style has been modified to work with Givi crashbars on the weeStrom. Although this style can be used prior to mounting Motech crashbars, Givi crashbars have to be installed before mounting. Mounting hardware provided with the highway pegs is different for the two brands of crashbars. NOTE: Currently not compatible with the new SW Motech Rally style crashbars.
Soft Luggage Side Guard -- DL650
Although similar to a standard tubular guard, I've added an aluminum shield that allows luggage to sit more squarely against its surface. The guard also helps fill in a vacant spot on the left side of the bike and looks good even when luggage is not being used.

I first made it in black, then silver and can't decide which color looks better on the bike.
Accessory Tube Luggage Guard - DL650
After having a number of Stromers inquire about possibly having a luggage guard that would double as a storage tube holder, I have put together an alternate design for the standard luggage guard. It features a different shield design with recessed areas along the top edge to keep web straps or stainless steel bands that would hold a storage tube in place.
Soft Luggage Support/Heat Shield (Aftermarket Pipes)
UNIVERSAL-FIT shield keeps soft luggage off of the hot surface of most of the popular aftermarket exhaust systems. Fits from 4 1/4 inch to 6 inch diameter oval or round pipes. Left and right side fit for the DL1000.
I don't currently run an aftermarket pipe but was curious to see how it fit to the OEM pipe. Not recommended for carbon-fiber pipes.
Support Rack - DL650
This support rack gets the whole bike up in the air for maintenance and changing both tires. It will work great with a motorcycle/ATV lift, although occasionally I just kick a section of railroad tie under it while leaning it over on the kickstand.
Quite a few Stromers have reported having problems with their centerstands dragging on corners, spring failures, etc. This support rack is an inexpensive way to safely lift the bike.
Genuine Sheepskin Seat Covers - DL650/1000
My sheepskin seat cover, or pad, differs from other ones that are currently out there. After closely examining a name brand item, I noticed that too much of the sheepskin protruded out from the driver allowing it to possibly get wet while in use in inclement weather. Also the fastening system, although allowing for quick removal of the pad, allowed movement when mounting and dismounting the bike. I chose to make mine a lace-up design which not only stays in place better but conforms to the shape of the seat. To avoid having the cover get wet when parked outdoors in the rain, we made a raincover of vinyl that simply tucks around the sheepskin. When folded up, the raincover can be carried in a pocket or bike bag, it's roughly the size of a pack of cigarettes. I have since designed a passenger sheepskin cover which attaches using the same lace-up system. My gal loves it.
If desired, a half-inch thick memory-type foam adds extra padding when used on the stock Strom seats. Since the sheepskin laces down snugly, the foam insert stays securely in place beneath it. Quite a bit less expensive than a $400+ custom seat!
Nylon cord lacing keeps the sheepskin from shifting. The cord should be drawn loosely so as to conform to the tool tray under the seat, once the seat is installed the cord draws up snugly, assuring a secure fit.
