I'm 6ft. Went with the short mounts & the streamliner pegs to match the floorboards. Go with short mounts. Your legs will have more extension. The long peg mounts are really for shorter guys. The pegs themselves are 3"? I believe from Harley.

Awesome! Thanks. That is the exact setup I was thinking about. I also thought of mounting the pegs directly to the bars without extentions but I think they would be too far of a reach.

Here's mine... dirty from about 700 miles since Friday - but there's no way she should have that kinda mileage on her in the middle of Feb! She's sitting beside the might Muskingum River in McConnelsville Ohio.
