Easy highway pegs for FXs
When I bought my bike the prior owner had installed the HD Heel Rest Peg Kit. I tried riding with them but never did like the feel. Took them off after a month of using them. I purchased A.N. 3 in. forward extensions and those really worked great but I started doing more traveling and wanted to be able to change my leg position.
So highway pegs sounded like the deal but with the A.N. 3 in. forward extensions I could find no engine guard that fit my Night Train to attach highway pegs to.
So.. I installed the heel rest pegs on the opposite side (upside down) of the mc as shown in my pics..gives me a leg extension that really feels good and my heels rest on the normal foot pegs. Cheap way to increase comfort.

Why couldn't you rest your heel on your peg when your riding?;

Your foot won't be secure and can slide back and forth
on the footpeg, and sitting on top of the footpeg for any length of time, with all the weight of your leg, will make the Achilles tendon, or back of your calf,sore quickly. The heel peg will prevent all of this, I should know since I recently took a trip to the Grand Canyon and with 400 to 650 mile days it worked great.
