Maintenance-free adjustable footrest with drylin double rail
Since seat position on motorcycles cannot be individually adjusted, MV Motorrad Technik GmbH has developed an adjustment mechanism for the footrest. A compact drylin W double rail system is installed here, allowing a uniform, maintenance-free process even with aggressive salts, dirt, and water. The system can be installed quickly and easily.
