Default Need Highway Peg Advice

I have the Kuryakyn Longhorn Offset Highway Pegs(Part #4575)on my 03 RKC. I am having and issue with keeping one of them tight and it moves all over the place when I ride(I bought them used). I have a chance to buy a barely used engine guard from my buddy and he was going to throw in the Kuryakyn iso-pegs(Part #8032 or 8033)he has attached to it. I'm 5'9" and was wondering if without the longhorn extensions, would I be reaching with my legs and be uncomfortable. Thanks for any advice.

I'm 5'10" and if is wasn't for the harley extensions there is no way i could reach my highway pegs on my SG. the harley extensions may work with your pegs and they don't move at all.

What is working loose? The mount itself or the peg clevis. It depends what is working loose will depend on the solution.

You need to put some *** behind it when tightening them. My Longhorns have around 20k miles on them and have never came loose.

I really appreciate the replies, but because of the aesthetics of the pegs im getting new ones either way. I would really love some advice in regards to the comfortability of switching over to these different pegs. Thanks again
