Abstract: The motorcycle footrest includes a mounting block and a footrest plate. The mounting block is clamped to a crash bar secured to a motorcycle frame. A pivot pin pivotally connects an end of the footrest plate to the mounting block for pivotal movement about a pivot pin bore axis that extends upwardly and forwardly at an angle of 45° from a horizontal plane. The footrest plate has a first footrest surface and a second footrest surface that are parallel to each other and face in opposite directions. Stop surfaces on the mounting block limit pivotal movement of the footrest plate when the first footrest surface is in a use position and when the second footrest surface is in a use position. At least one aperture passes through the footrest plane and intersects the first and second footrest surfaces. An aperture insert is mounted in the aperture.
