Default Arlen Ness Forward Control Kit

Thinking of getting the Arlen Ness Forward Control Extension Kit for my 2006 Softail Standard. I'm 5'10 and looking for a little more leg room. Anyone who has this on their bike I would like to hear what you think.

I'm 5'11" and it has been one of the best things that I have done for riding comfort. It takes awhile to get used to the position of the foot brake pedal but everything else was a big improvement.

I can get them for you. I don't know about riding with them as I have floorboards.
