I'm pretty sure Washington state is in the USA

I do the same at a depot in Niagara falls, but it's probably not worth it to save $7 on a set of pegs.

No, not for $7. But if I have them delivered in Canada it would cost somewhere around $40 additional for taxes and brokerage. Pity about Wash state....it's a very nice place, great people.

If they break under normal use there is a good chance a crash will occur, possibly causing significant injury to the rider. Maybe I'm a bit over-board, but I consider pegs an integral part of controlling the m/c and I'm not interested in pegs that may fail.

So, was hoping that someone who has actually used these pegs could pass along their personal experience.

Failure is rare, but is does happen. I've seen pics. Luckily the failure wasn't tragic. Peg failure can be painful. Buy the best, cry once.

My $$ went to IMS and I'm happy it did. A wonderful product that worries me naught.

No taxes on items imported below $20 value.

I used the same pegs for 4 years on my previous KLX without issue.

If they are shipped USPS it should be alright.
If shipped via courier (UPS, FEDEX, etc) BEND OVER!

As mechanical resistance to shock me look like a good product. I do not believe
that will give me problems.

Ordered on Thursday, received on Saturday. Installed this morning, comparison to stock pegs:

Haven't ridden with them yet, but first impressions are a good value for the price. Not much longer than stock, but 40-50% wider. Will likely be purchasing the MSR shift lever at some point as well.

I found a set like those on ebay for under $20 incl. shipping. Do the search and then filter it "lowest price and shipping" to find the best price. I got a set for both KLXs and spent like $32. The wider peg is more comfortable in general.

The sellers really play pricing games.
