I am interested in forward controls for my 01 Fatboy. I would like to get rid of the scraping as I go around sharp corners and I really like the feel of having my feet forward. When I am not shifting or breaking I keep my feet out on the highway pegs. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could post up some pics and info on their controls.
I am about 6' tall and have a shorter inseam of 32 to 33 inches. I was wondering if 2" extension would be good or go for the 3"? I just want a comfortable riding position and have good access to the brake and shifter. Any specifics on makes or types of controls would be good. Not really looking to drop 1k on a set either. Just want something that is solid and looks as well as it performs. Any advise?
