    The rear pegs on my '81 Seca 750 were angled down around 10 - 15* from level, looking like a passenger's foot might want to slide off.

    You perfectionists know it needs to be dismantled, welded, ground to fit, and then re-chromed, and nobody is going to do that.
    Or you buy some new pegs. . .

    Anybody have four pennies? that's right. . . $0.04 !
    Jam a penny up under the peg, step on it, jam in another, step it down to "level". My GF doesn't weigh much, so there's no reason to really stomp it down. Each side took 2 pennies.

    Just do it !
