Default Ness 3" Foward Control Extension Kit

Just wondering if anybody has used this kit. I am 6'3 and would like to extend the pegs on my 2007 FXST. Has anybody put this kit on themselves? Also how is the Ness product? I have never bought anything from there so I am looking for some input.
Thanks

If you do a search on this site they have been discussed quite alot.

Im 6'4" and have them installed. For the price they could atleast include chrome bolts and a higher quality brake line / shift link

be careful, your kickstand will hit your primary after installing the kit...well at least mine does.

Hey Highflyer I have the Ness 3" ext on my 07 FXSTC. Also had them on my 03 Deuce.
The sidestand use to bang on the primary of the 03 but is fine on the 07. They changed the forward controls on the 07 up models so the ness kit is different as well. Best thing U can do to a softail I recon if you like a bit of leg room.
Poted some pics of the exts.

I've got the ness kit on my 06 night train. Best investment so far. I did the kit myself, pretty simple to install too! I have no problem with my kickstand hitting anything.

Flyer,

Just put the Kuryakyn extension kit on my Dyna yesterday, World of difference I'm 6' 2" and the 3 in extension is just right, Kury kit is all chrome and looks good. Kit I had was for dyna but I'm sure they have a kit for a softail. Easy install took about 45 min would take about 15 the second time around. Just another option

Check out this link https://www.hdforums.com/m_1089851/tm.htm

Lots of info, picsand opinions on forward controls. I have the Kurayakan on my Deuce. The extra 3" makes a world of difference on riding comfort.

You're going to need a jack to install these because it requires removal of the jiffy stand when doing the left side. I have them on my springer classic and at 6' they really help.
