Default Passenger footrest

My wife is compaining about the saddlebag guards hurting the back of her legs. Looking for a correction.
I have seen HD mounts that raise the footrest up 2 1/4 inches and Kuryaken has adjustable pegs.
What have you used and made the little woman happy? (Foot rests)

The passenger brackets themselves are adjustable up and down also.

There are a LOT of satisfied Kury customers on this board.&nbsp\\; The wives seem to love those adjustable pegs.&nbsp\\; Mine sure does.

Picked up a set of these passenger pegs for the Ultra last year at Sturgis.&nbsp\\; The wife loves them.

HD has a different guard that that gives the passenger more leg room.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; PN 49087-01.

Have them on&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;08 UCSE3&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;and wife says they really work!

My wife also loves the adjustable Kuryakyn pegs that mount on the floorboards. They work well and now her legs do not hit the guards.

I ended up changing the OEM saddlebag guards and put on Road Glide supports on my '01 RKC (and I thought it looked much better).... It was already done on my '07 RG (lol)
