With them all down it looks a bit much, kick up the ones your not using when you park it and noboby will probably notice and Like most have posted, who cars what others think anyway. Oh, Peggy is a good name too.

Yes, to me it looks a little goofy, but as others here have said, it doesn't matter what other people think, if it works for you, JUST DO IT! It's all about what works for you as an individual.

It dosen't look bad. Just flip up the ones you're not using. The only ones who are going to notice, are the ones looking at it when it's parked, wishing they had a bike like it. And when you're riding no one will notice.

Yeah I had three sets on mine till I took off the passenger ones since my wife doesn't like riding on the back. I'll be down to one set once I get my forwards.

If you have a reason to do something that is valid, screw the looks.

I say keep them and enjoy the little bit of added comfort.

The name peggy sounds perfect, I would keep it.

I have highway pegs but will put the mid pegs on when I am going on a long trip. It gives my legs more options and room to move around. When I reach my destination I take the mids back off.

If you have a passanger on these trips, it's not an option, but maybe you could get rid of the mid pegs which would knock it down to 3 sets.

I know it's comfortable for the bagger guys to put their feet up on those front pegs, but it does make me laugh a little. It looks especially funny when they have the pegs up really high.
Yeah, get rid of those mid controls....why on earth would anybody want a Harley with foot controls in a position where you are in an ACTUAL postition to aggressively control the beast?

I don't have highway pegs or crashbars,and was considering getting mid pegs on my forward control fatbob but decided not to because i thought too many pegs would look too busy, but as stated it is your ride,who cares what anyone else thinks.And because your highway pegs are further out it creates a certain symetry. Cudos man don't change a thing!
