Forward controls on a bagger??
I have been thinking about forward controls for my SG. I had them on my Deuce and I liked them. But how are they on a bagger? I am only about 5'8 and I had a Mustache bar on my bike and it was just a bit too far forward. (might sell the bar?) I tend to rest my heels on the front of my footboards. Has anyone ridden a bagger with forward controls, and how did you like them? Opinions? And who makes the best ones?

Like Darren said above I am running Accutronix Forward Controls on my Road King. I am over 6 foot and it is a good reach for me. They look awesome and they draw lots of attention, but with that being said my king is no long a cruiser and I would not want to ride it for 100's of miles like my road glide of even my king the way it was set up before I did everything to it. It just does not seem to handle as well anymore.
I am not sure if this is because of the way I sit on the bike now or because the RG has spoiled me. With my legs way out in front of me and my arms out on those drag bars going 80 down the high way I just feel like a sail in the wind so after 30 - 50 miles it is time to get on side streets. But damn do they look good.
