Bent footpeg mount/frame

[Bamboo]

so, leftside (sprocketside) footpeg is bent, Just got some new moose racing pegs, And I thought it was my stock peg that was bent, turns out its the actual frame/peg mount

Is there a way to bend these back? Or any known methods to help?

If you need a better idea of what im talkin about, I can get you one pic.

I had a similar problem on a previous bike. I bought woodcraft rearseats and after I installed them I found out both left and right side were angled. turns out the frame wasn't bent it was just a very poor job of smoothing out the paint and welds from the factory. i took a dremel to it and smoothed it all back out. Any chance you can do this? Or is it bent pretty badly?

Doh, yeah that sounds reasonable but mine are pretty bent I should grab the camera and take a pic or two:bonk:

I was in an accident last august when i was hit by a land rover, i had to lay my bike down on its right side and my left leg was sandwiched between the bike and the bumper of the landrover, after a broken fibula and crushed ankle I was riding again in 3 months.

My peg mount was bent forward a little more than the pic above, my buddy who is a welder had to heat it up w/ an acetylene torch and bend it back with a giant adj. wrench. A small torch like propane def wouldn't get it hot enough, that is some serious metal
