Default almost floor boards

Just got back from a ride down town, that somehow turned into a ride to the next town and back. I've almost adjusted to the feel of the new peg setup. Put heel rest on my mid controlFXDLI last month and have only had a few short rides to get the feel.

Great change, more relaxed position, solid support, quality H-D part. Almost the feel of floor boards

do you think you couldswap the toe shifter with a heel-toe shift lever with those heel rests on?

I've been using them fora year now-not real wild aboutthe look but they are comfy - gots real big feets (13EE) You will really appreciate on longer rides - I'm eying the Kuryakn switch blades now. Give you the option of folding the heel rest up into the pegs...

boogiewith- I looked a long time at the Kury pegs and h-rest, good quality and the best look I found outside h-d(Kury's the only non h-d parts on my dyna.) I like the size/scale of the Kury's. I thinkthe new look, with restsis even better; aahh black and chrome.
Thanks for the trip and shoe size comments, fits my thinking.

You not worried about forward controls, size 13's, and highspeed bike stability?

Holy ****, that was funny, I needed that after a day like today! Yeah, cant' get the bike over 80MPH ;-) I don't wear brakes out very fast either; I just pivot my feet on the heel rests - acts like one of them there Nascar brakes!

I had the iso dualies on mine before I extended the forwards - very comfortable, but a little busy w/ the extensions so I went back to a pair of large isos from my 'collection'. The wings do look like they would be great w/ frowards.
