Question fxcwc 3" forward control extensions

Anyone seen or fitted 3" extension forward controls on a Rocker C. I am 6ft 3ins with a 35" inside leg and would like to stretch out my legs further than with the stock position to take the bend out of my knees a bit. Can't seem to find any for a fxcwc? Any input, i'm all ears.

240,
I'm also 6'3" and recently put an Arlene Ness 3" extension on my NT. It completly changed the feel of my bike, for the better. Not sure if they have one for the Rocker but it's worth the look.

Thanks for the info, where did you find the Arlen Ness extensions? Also have you had any issues with the chrome, I have heard on the forum that Ness chrome is not the best?

I have the Battistini +3 controls. They do a +2 & +3. It really makes a difference for the long legged folk

Thanks for the info. I want to use the Aftermarket foot pegs, shifter and brake pedal I already have but it says you can't. Don't understand? Any ideas why?

The CycleVisions kit lets you use your existing pegs and pedals.

Anytime, I believe they are referring to the feelers that are on our factory pegs that keep you from scraping the primary and pipes. After market pegs and pedals should bolt up fine. I wish they would make some cool after market pegs with feelers. The feeler pegs do help to keep from leaning the bike too far. I've heard seen several posts from owners with after market foot pegs dragging their primary's and pipes, ouch! Your stuff should bolt right up. If you choose to go the cheaper route, you'll have to either paint or chrome the extensions the others are suggesting. I seen one that looked like it might have been aluminum or anodized, looked ok from a distance, but looked like crap up close. Hope this helps.
