Default pas. peg?

Well the wife is tiered of the factory pegs, and would like to have some that are higher upon the bike. So I figured I would ask you guys what options are out there and any pics would be cool. I even thought about mounting peg right to the bolts just under the seat. I got a Deluxe by the way, thanks in advance!

HD makes an adjustable bracket (for height) for passenger pegs. You can find it on their web site. Just make sure it will fit your model. My wife also hated the small pegs. She wanted to be able to change her foot position on the longer rides. I bought and installed the HD Mini-Floorboards for her and then put a set on for myself as well. HD part #50451-09

They work well for us, sometimes being able to move your foot a few inches one way or the other makes a huge difference.

This Mini Footboard Kit can be installed in place of traditional footpegs and provides a little additional leg support and more options to move your feet around on a long run. Mini Footboards mount to standard H-D style footpeg supports, and can be used in many rider and passenger applications. A little larger than a bicycle pedal, Footboards can be pivoted to the proper angle for maximum riding comfort. The sole-gripping horizontal black rubber bands complement the mirror-chrome finish, and add vibration isolation and a rich appearance to the pegs.

I just installed the 50500109 HD mini floorboards on my dyna and she loves them. Bonus for me, is she doesn't squirm on the seat anymore. She said its more comfortable and dampers the vibration too. I liked them because you can adjust the angle of them and they are well made.

Do you have stock pipes?

If you don't you can get any HD passenger boards. Everything that says wont fit the deluxe is because of the pipes

I have pass boards in the factory location, but my wife wanted somethin higher too. So I installed a set of hd pegs in the lower front bolt hole on the rear fender strut . This is on a heritage. They fold out when she wants to put her knees up and fold back up under the seat when she doesn't. Best of both worlds, they are bout a foot higher than factory location.

My girl had the same problem. Check out my D.I.Y. Up top. Gotta have the HD foot board for this do-it-yourself mod but my girlfriend loves them.

Take a look at Kuryakyn transformer floorboards. Will give the OL 2 foot positions.
