Yeah, the 3" extension puts them in a nice spot. Dragging the heel isnt a big deal, it just wears your shoes out in an odd way. Once in a while, if you start dragging them too long, the rubber heats up enough and will suddenly gain traction, which sweeps your foot off the peg. It's only happened a few times and isnt a big deal, but was very surprising the first time! But that only seems to happen if i'm wearing my workboots and let them rather than flexing my heel up.

I love the look of the forward controls, however fat boys have always had boards, kinda been one of their distinguishing features......I installed some performance machine boards to dress up the stockers a bit......

I'm 6'1" and I bought the V-Twin Goodies Floorboard Extensions to move the Footboards out.

and I bought the Kuryakin Longhorn Offset Peg Mounts to mount my Avon footpegs on my engine guard. One of my winter projects!
