Again, "prototype". Used to determine upshift and downshift peg placements, but it is functional.

Will ditch the holy slice of 4x4 alum.angle for shiny chrome steel, eventually.

I had the same problem after instaling the Kury fat pegs and stirrups. I took off the bolt that holds the shift peg on and moved it up to another setting on the spline and it works fine. It was a VERY easy fix but dont forget to replace the anti seize on the bolt.....

Default I know what you mean / need.

the one you're asking about is called the further forward mids kit for dyna's and they did it as a stock option on the 2014 to 17 Low Rider and Low Rider s models. I have installed this further forward mids kit on my Dinah as well but they come with aluminum levers which suck, the splines have already worn out and I can't find any other longer ones without buying a kit.
