I got the Touratech Works pegs for my '13 and they fit fine. I got them mainly because I didn't want them to pivot since I expect to be standing on them a lot.

Interesting that the Pivot Pegz don't fit the 2013. I have the Touratech Works pegs and they fit fine on my 2013, and they specify all years of F800GS. The Pivot Pegz must be bigger or something.
