footpeg Explanation: An Italian friend of mine is building a small motorbike from scracth (!). Last week he told me precisely that he had just "saldato le pedane", i.e. welded the foopegs. "Pedane" is a synonim for "pedalini". Motorbikes have two for the rider and two for the passenger, if any. They look like this: http://www.dragonemotorcycles.it/it/dept_186.html I am very familiar with bikes and bikers, so I can tell you this for sure :-). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 34 mins (2012-08-13 14:06:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Just wait aminute, I have a doubt: "profilo tunnel centrale pedana lato destro" makes me think of this: http://www.ebay.it/itm/CARENA-PEDANA-TUNNEL-CENTRALE-for-SUZ... However, this is not used in motorbikes but in the so called "scooteroni" or "scooter", which are not motorbikes speaking strictly. Is your text about a motorbike or a "scooter/scooterone"? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 39 mins (2012-08-13 14:11:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS: if your "pedane" look like those in my ebay link, they are simply called footrests, as you inferred. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2012-08-13 16:37:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- So, you can call it "footpeg" if it looks like a pin or "footrest" if it looks like a plate or you don't know how it looks like :-) |
