RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

Consider Kuryakin pegs before you default to the Harley catalogue.When it comes to adjustable peg setups I think HD falls short on design and and value.

RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

hopefully you will be able to see mine in these pics.
I removed the floor boards and used kuryakn iso stirrups (peg and heel rest)
with offset mounts (can turn up down forward and back or a combination).

RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

went with kary, like posted elseware. Had to make a gut decision after much thought and searches. Liked the quality of hd stuff but kari had more adjustability and ended up with the iso wing mini boards(think thats what there called) liked the hwy floor boards by karybut thought they were too big and the iso wings^ seem like best of both peg and board(half moon). Read post someware about the hd 360 "slippin"??? and also if you get those pegs on the link you provided i would stay away from the "oversized" ones(seen them and they look to long). So far I think I made a good choice,the extra area on iso wings makes a big difference especially on long rides and the tilt/up/down/back/forward adjustment is perfect with kary short angle mounts.

This is subjective and mentally anguishing cause pretty much after you get them and use'im your stuck so to speak.

good luck

I have a rk custom. Bought streamliner pegs off ebay, and the hd 360 short mount. I love them. Use them all the time, and mine have never slipped, and I put a lot of weight on them (I am 350ish lbs,). They were the right choice for me. For a better price check out www.chicagohd.com they give a 20% discount.

RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

Once again, thanks everbody for their time and great suggestions. When I decide I'll try and post some pics so you can at least see my new bike. It's pretty much a full-on addiction as I'm sure you allknow.

PapaTravis, if you happen to check this post again, I really like your setup. Is your Mounting Kit these:

Or these:

Or am I wrong on both. Thanks again everyone!!

RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

Most of your HD mounts are made by Kuryakyn. Ot at least on the same assembly line. They are just alot cheaper through Kury. I have the Kuryakyn Longhorn Offsets. They are exactly the same as the HD 360 degree pegs. I had them side by side. Nothing different at all. Just cheaper because you are not paying for the HD name. I bought my Longhorns with the dually pegs for more foot room.

BTW here is how I have mine mounted. This is on my previous Road King but they are exactly the same on my Street Glide. I can put my toes on the pegs and leave my heels on the floorboards. Feels just like having forward controls. I'm 5' 9" and it works great for me.

RE: Highway Footpeg Setup

Monstermile- Your setup looks awesome too. It's great to have a visual. I guess now it's decision time. That pattern of footpeg would actually look good w/ the scheme on my RK. About 50 bucks cheaper too. Thanks.
