Default Highway pegs on a Night Train

Is anyone running highway Pegs on their night train? I'm thinking about a way to do em but keep the bike's low profile look. I don't have an engine guard or anything like that on there and won't be putting one on but I'd love to be able to stretch out on the longer rides.

I just drop my heels on my pegs to stretch out a bit. I also added heel rests, kinda feels like floorboards, best thing ever for comfort..

I just installed the Kuryakyn Cruise Arms on my Fat Boy, and they're a good alternative without having to have an engine guard.

You can mount a mustache bar on the front which I think looks like a$$ or you can just hook you heels over the top of the pegs. About your only options shy of mounting a highway bar on it. Good luck on your project.

Damn Tx. Your bike looks like its been trough a couple slight mods since then lol. I normally just throw my heels up on the pegs when I'm crusing but I'm tall as hell so the pegs are a little high up on my legs. These Kuryakan Mark IV Cruise Arms might to the trick: http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/392...se-Arm-Mark-IV. Nothing a little black PC can't trake care of. Thanks for the suggestions!

Mine were the Mark III's. I used the extra-long pegs on them to move my feet out a bit too. This was on top of the 3" Ness extensions. Yep! Long legs here.........

I ran the kury mustache bar for awhile, and yes it doesn't look that great, plus it put my feet up too high. I had the early rendition of it that just bolted to the cross plate on the downtubes. The new version has a double clamp setup so it's height adjustable. Don't know if it would help or not. Even when I had the extra pegs, I found myself just hooking the heels on low pegs more often than not.

Here's a couple pics of it.





And here's one of them in use, don't mind that fugly dude on my bike!

Hahaha thanks JR. Might go with the mark IVs. Look like a pretty good set up. These bikes really aren't made for tall folks but F it. Wouldn't ride anything else!
