lol 5'7" with a 30" inseam, it's a struggle with highway pegs for sure, I am currently using Kuryakyn Longhorns
Same dimensions with the same answer here on my Dyna, using Joker Machine Serrated Heel footpegs. On my EG I just opted for no highway pegs as I find the floorboards themselves allow me enough room to move around on.
Am I reading this correct, do they fold up out of the way when you don't want to use them? I like that idea, if so. I just can't stand the look of the engine guard pegs, especially on my chopped guard.
The guy who owned the CVO Limited I bought from was fairly short, and he had the stock Highway pegs mounted high on the crash bars. When I rode it after buying it, my knees were up around the top of the tank, as I’m relatively tall (6’2”). I dropped them down to the bottom of the crash bar and can now stretch my legs out fully.
I was surprised how much difference the adjustment provided.

no hwy pegs for me keep my feet on the foot boards where they belong
Both of my bikes have Cyclesmiths XL Banana Boards which make highway pegs a non issue. I do have angled peg mounts on both bikes but had I put the BB's on first I would not have either bike with highway pegs. Here is a picture for reference.
I just put Highway pegs on my 2014 Ultra Limited. After a long ride yesterday, I changed the position of them today. I'll see how I like it tomorrow. Like someone said here: Trial and error. And $$$
For me the floorboards are fine. The pegs are just so I can position my legs differently once in a while on a long ride.
