I keep thinking about going with forwards.. but I don't want to spend that kind of money on them and find out there not comfortable for me or too much of a reach.. So.. I'll stick with my mids until then..
I swapped forwards for mids on my '05 Custom (same set-up as '09). If you have factory exhaust head pipes there's no issues. It's not that difficult to do. The trickiest bolt is the one on the brake rod behind the front muffler. You'll want a set of cir-clip pliers to remove the footpeg stalks. A little mirror might help, too. I just used the reflection in the chrome. Don't let your brake pedal slam into your exhaust when the brake rod bolt is removed. The mids only lasted about one day on my bike. I absolutely hated them, but it was an easy swap.
