Diamond Black Advice?

Going with the Diamond Black collection grips, pegs, brake, etc...

Considering the footboard inserts but hesitating to drop the $200 on them. Anyone have them? Do you like them? How do they look after some use?

Thanks!

I've had them for two years now and I like them pretty good. I have to wear gloves though because the grips are hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Some have had trouble with the end caps falling off of the grips but it's never happened to me. The pegs are a little slick and I wish I had gotten the larger brake pedal. As far as looks, I haven't noticed any difference after 12,000 miles except for the ground down pegs from scraping. Oh and GO STEELERS!!!!

I have all the diamond black collection(pegs not floorboards)...................sitting in my garage. I swithced grips cause they were too slick but still seemed to tear up my hands if I didnt wear gloves. I switched pegs/controls cause if you have any moisture on the bottom of your foot the pegs are slick too.

PM me if your interested. They arent in NEW or perfect condition but I bet I could save ya a good chunk of change.
