I have the black engine guard with highway pegs on my Heritage. Love the setup. Nice to be able to adjust the pegs when necessary.

I'm not a fan of engine guards, so I have Jac-knifes (highway pegs that switchblade out from your footboards). I'm 5'11" and they work great.

My wife's heritage has the nostalgic with outside mount pegs... very versatile and easy to set up. She loves them. If you're going to go with the guard, this is I think what you're looking for.

If this is your only set, you're gonna need to pick up a T27 somewhere, as there are a boatload of that odd size on an H-D...

No bar on the fatboy. Using cruise arms off the floorboards. On the bagger I'm using h.d. 360* peg mounts, super adjustable.....steve

I have the HD mustache bar with the rubber foot rests. After I added my SE intake, I can't get to the right rest. I added some adjustable pegs. The riding position with the foot rests did not feel right to me anyway.
