Sourcing metal pegs and grips

I'm installing rearsets on my Sporty and am looking for metal pegs like these

or these

I'm looking for something that's purely utilitarian, the polar opposite of the Crappyakyn iso pegs that came on it but it seems that my only options are rubber stockers or $169 for custom "HD" paegs that "look" utilitarian. Am I barking up the wrong tree? There's got to be a source for fold-up male fit metal pegs right? or no?
Not to complicate the original quesiton but I'm also looking for sportbike (not dirtbike) style rubber or metal grips for 1" bars. Same problem; 1,000 options at $29 for 7/8" bars, 10 options at $169 for 1" bars.
Any help is greatly appreciated...

Chris

Baxter grips are nice. I am von a similar quest, only thing I have found bar wise are low rise drag bars. If you are going to use rear sets, you could use buell clip ons and change everything over to 7\8 if you wanna get low, or clubman bars the correct way. Hope this helps.

A set like just these arrived yesterday from a forum member (thanks Tom).

Rearsets are on now, just need to run a new brake line.

...and..... these pipes came in yesterday, I'm going to pick them up after lunch!
(remove for update below)
The fttings for the HD-style flp up pegs are bolted onto the Chainsikle mounts. I may just remove them, bush out the mount and replace with Jap take off pegs.
I'll look into the Baxter grips, thanks.

Hello sexy....

Going to spend some time fitting the rearsets, brake cylinder and resevoir behind and around the pipes. Trying to fit 10 pounds of shit into a 5 pound bag.
BTW - The ACME pegs are cool, but are exactly what I'm talking about in regard to being really expensive because they're for HD. $99 for pegs...

As much as I hate to say it, Roland Sands tracker line is nice. Renthal grips and the pegs are killer. Way too rich for my blood though.

i know what ya mean - he makes some really great looking stuff, but fuck him and his sticker prices - the shit aint gold for christ sake!

but back to thread
Sato makes nice rear sets (and I think they have a way of using some of your stock shit - if i /member correct anyways)

for some pegs - rocks chops has a neato set ive been thinkin about - swiss pegs he calls em. but im still lookin for some older mx cage style contraptions fer my scoot maybe.
