I've looked at my rear pegs and there is a fair clearance on either side - when the footrest is down yes there is some side movement even when painted - when the footrest is up they are pretty much solid as the tension on the compressed rubber feet hold them firm. In situ they look pretty much as they should - plus horizontal when down. The Clevis pins needed a very slight tap with small rubber hammer to fit - the pegs rotate on the clevis pin as its held in quite tightly by the washer & split pin.

Mine, minus all the paint are very loose and I've followed old Honda before and watched the entire rear footrest vibrate and rattle around even on smooth roads. Just a thought, I'll keep you updated on how the mod goes in case yours start to rattle around.

I guess you could fit a wavy washer(s) between the bracket & the footrest?
