Default Passenger Comfort on FXDF

Been searching on here for a solution and haven’t had much luck so thought would ask the question: My wife has been looking for a another location to put her feet when we go on long rides, the ability to move her legs to a different position is what we are looking for. I currently have the Kuryakyn ISO Pegs with Stirrups and she likes them but keeping the feet and legs in same position is the problem. I have contacted pegrizer.com since have heard many like them and they would work with the pegs already have but unfortunately they do not make anything for the Fat Bob. I know Kuryakyn has the peg mounted cruise mounts but not sure would be able to keep the stirrups which gives her support and also keeps the boots of the pipes, so any suggestions would be great. I am sure one or two might say get a bagger if looking for comfort but like the Bob way to much fun. Thanks

It's hard to reach a compromise between a Dyna and wife.
Options include:
1. Trade the Dyna for a Road King.
2. Trade the wife for a Road King. (just kidding)
3. Own a Dyna for you plus a Road King for the wife rides.
4. Get her a Dyna and both ride.

I was gonna say isn't passenger comfort on an FXD an oxymoron anyway. Well the peg riser things could work. As my girlfriend says the back of my harley feels fine compared to the old sport bike where it felt like she was getting left behind when It took off. lol

Thanks for the options, Have been actually thinking of option 1 but not sure since enjoy the bob so much, especially when on the road alone. Option 4 would be great but she cant even ride a bicycle, and when have brought up has no interest.

Bear that is true but trying to make her as comfortable as possible so can be out on the road more. When wife is happy everyone else is too.

as for the pegrisers they were very sure they would not work, would not give details but why would I argue its their product.

I put these on when the wife rides with me. Due to her bad back she doesn't ride often enough to leave them on all the time but to her it makes a big difference. Plus when I take the grandson for a ride I can just adjust them differently and they make up the difference for his shorter legs. If the link doesn't come through it the 4" adjustable lockable offsets and I do have an '08 FXDF, they fit fine.

I have footboards for my wife on my FXDF, but stopping once an hour to top off gas and stretch legs goes along way for comfort.

Do you have a picture of them on your bike and what pegs are you using?
