Default Forward Controls

I'm looking for some forward controls for my nightster. I want them in black to go with the rest of the bike. Does anyone know of any good brands that may be cheaper than HD's? Denim Black Nightster

No. I just did an 08 Nightster with the HD black controls. $340 less 15% (dealer sale).

Mine came like that from the factory (XL1200C)... love them. Can't imagine riding with mid-controls.
