Hey, first post here. 2012 FXST. Yes my bike is dirty. I'll clean it as soon as you guys help me fix this peg.
My right passenger footpeg is pretty loose and rotates easily. The bolt on the hinge is nice and tight, it's whatever's connecting the peg to the frame that seems to be loose. How is this thing connected and how can I tighten it?
Remove bolt and the peg there should be an allen or torx head in the hole behind the peg, tighten it at the angle you want the peg, reinstall. Ride safe.

And a smidgen of Blue Loctite on the threads will help keep it tight.

Check for a lock washer too and screw it, use RED Loctite, once you get it where you want it you don't want it moving. And if
you do, heat it up to remove it.
