Default Ness 3" forward control kit

I'm 6'3" and have been looking for a decent set of 3" forward controls for my '06 Standard...on eBay I came across a set of Arlen Ness 3" forward control adapters which move your stock forward controls 3" out via adapter plates. The kit also includes the extended brake line and shift linkage rod. Has anyone seen/used this Ness setup or can someone recommend a good set of 3" forward controls??...Thanks!

I was looking at getting some as well. From what I have searched, the Ness ones seem like they are good ones. They are reasonably priced as well.

I have it in my '06 NT. Wonderful, specially with ISO-Stirrups Footpegs from Kuryakyn. I think this is the best forward Control. See below:

I have the HD 3" forward control brackets on my 06 Standard. The price was right at $199, easy to install, and use the stock controls. I think the chrome version is priced @ around $300

I am 6'3" and have the HD Extended Controls on an 06 FXSTS... Chrome... They are great. I toyed around on selecting the HD, Ness or the Kuryakyn. I believe the selection is a matter of taste and budget. They all do the same thing. I finally decided to keep as much HD as I can...

Good luck with your decision.

I have the ness onesw and for the price, you can't beat them. They are much cheaper than the HD ones.

I installed the ness extensions along with forward controls on my '05 Springer Classic. The extensions are nice and came with everything needed for the install. I am happy with them. Check out my gallery for a few close-up pics.
