“I was riding my stock 2007 hd sportster 1200 yesterday on a paved road approx. 35 MPH when I ran over a rough portion of road. The right foot peg / rear brake pedal assembly came off from its mounting position on the lower frame and was dragging on the road. I pulled over to discover that the two bolts that hold the bracket / assembly to the frame had sheared off. I weigh 185 lbs and the motorcycle did not bottom-out on the rough road, nor did the brake / foot peg assembly strike the road. The bolts appear to have simply sheared off from my weight on the foot peg on a rough patch of road. …”
