I agree, the Ness kit is ace. I also added forward controls to them, so I'm nearly 5" further out than stock. Love the look, and it's way comfortable, especially on long trips.

Got my Ness kit installed today after work, its about to rain so I only got a quick ride in. I have to say tho, this is a must for any person with long legs. worth every penny!

Yeah, I'm 6'4" so I am in need of them as well. Just curious, how are some of you getting the 5"? Also, does the 2" really make that much of a difference, it doesn't seem like it would but I know numbers are deceiving.

Im interested in this setup as well. 2inches would make a huge difference for me on top of the 3inch Ness extension.

I picked up a set of Accutronix Forward Controls from Dennis Kirk at half price last year ($500...it was just about this time last year).

I am 6'4" and I have to say this was one of the best purchases for my Springer that I made. I do not think my riding position could be more comfortable.

I have a fatboy w/floorboards. Would I have to switch to forwards for an extension or is there a way to move the floorboards forward and add longer shiftords and such?
