What is it called
I love the clevis pins to hold my pegs on and am always losing one of those little spring clips that go in the groove to hold them on. Does anybody know what that clip is called and/or where to buy them. I would like a spare dozen of the little buggers to help me avoid crawling around looking for them when they fly. Thanks

RE: What is it called
Go to your HD parts counter and ask for a chrome set of foot peg fasteners (bolts & nuts). They are perfect to get rid of those push-in posts and snap rings (C-clips). They look much better, and you can torque-down to apply as much friction as you want to hold the new pegs up. If (when) you change to after-market foot pegs, you'll need something that will squeeze the foot pegsbetter to keep them from flopping down on their own.
You still use (need) the bent washer with these new screws, but life will be much better.

Thanks Poorboy butI have been running the clevis pins on the passenger pegs on my Fatboy for 2 years with no problem. The flat, slightly curved insert keeps their tension just right. I am trying to do away with the nut and bolt look, the clevis pin is much cleaner, just need to find a source of that little "C" shaped clip gismo that loves to take flight.
