Foreward Control Extensions on Softail Standard?

Anyone put foreward control extensions on a Softail Standard or Train? After riding a long time my legs start to cramp up a bit and thinking that this may solve the problem. If you have gone this route what brand did you go with. It doesnt look very labor intensive but with Harley's you never really know. Pics and comments would be great.

I have an 06 standard and just installed the arlen ness 3" kit and boy what a difference. I am 6'2 and if only I knew how much more comfortable I feel I would have done this as a first mod. kit looks great comes with everything you need. under $200 at eastern perforamance.com

Another positive for the 3'' extensions. Shop around, can be had for around $150.00 They will make your legs much happier.

3" extensions here also, one of the first mods I did. Install was pretty easy.

I've heard lots of good things about the Ness kit, and I've bought from Eastern Performance a few times, too...think I'm gonna have to spring for this one before warm weather hits...
