Default Forward Controls???????

Hey all,

I'm rebuilding a 94' FXRP and I am needing some parts advice. I was looking at foward controls for both sides and it looks like a good set can cost me upwards of $800. I don't know if this price point is even worth it. I'm looking for chrome forward controls. If you all could give me some suggestions that hopefully don't break the bank, I would greatly appreciate it.

Zach

Harley controls work great. Keep in mind if you're letting them do the work they will hit you for 4 hours labor ($380.00 + tax). I had mine done an although it was costly I think it was worth every penny

Pricey- yes, just look at the switchback floor boards, it costs about 700$ just for the kit! They kill you with all the little pieces sold separately!

I'm assuming you will check our very own classifieds section, ebay, craigslist and what not.

Good controls are worth what you pay for them. I have Supreme Legends controls, they were around 600 shipped with a special, not sure if they still have it.
They have dozens of designs to choose from.
Had mine for about 5 months and 4k miles, could not be happier with the quality and service i got from them.

Found a guy in Dallas who is selling forward controls off of his 07' softail, what do you all think? Will they fit my Harley?

Could probably talk him down a bit too. Don't think they're factory so I'm still trying to get all the details.

They are for a softail, they won't bolt right up
