You might try gel insoles in your boots? Otherwise I suggest you go trade up to something with a TC96B, which doesn't vibrate as much (such as a Softail model - my Fatty is smooth as silk) or go metric.

You could try the Kuryakyn ISO pegs. They work on the same principle as their ISO grips, with rubber pads on metal pegs.

We were both just trying to help...but it's a Harley! Get it? A Harley! It vibrates! If you can't handle the pain you feel from it, don't ride it! Sorry we couldn't be of more help.

Oh, Oh, someone found lumps in their oatmeal, this morn.
They jus' be tryin' ta help, Juno.

You can try the Iso pegs. I'm jus' not a real big fan of the looks, myself.

OR you could rumble a couple hundred miles on the hardtail pan, then the Bob would feel like a 'magic carpet' ride.
