Default Angled Highway Peg

&nbsp\\;
Purchased Kit # 50830-07 Angled Highway Peg Mounting Kit.&nbsp\\; Based on the attached Instruction Sheet, I assumed the footpeg is towards the front tire.&nbsp\\; Installing&nbsp\\;the kit as presented in the instruction sheet, my 5'10 1/2" frame isn't capable of resting my boot on the footpeg.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Tooooooooooooooooo far to stretch.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
Any suggestions for this non-wrench?
&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
TIA
&nbsp\\;

Turn the arm around so that it is closer to you.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I have those on mine and I'm only 5' 10" as well.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; With those arms, you can just about put the peg in any position you want.



P.S. Sorry I don't have them pictured in my sig

By looking at that picture I would think that the peg goes toward the engine. But that may be my 5' 6" thinking.

Can't you switch them side to side and bring them towards you?&nbsp\\; There has to be a way.

&nbsp\\;
In AM will switch the arm around and that should do it.&nbsp\\; The peg is currently toooooooo far away to rest my foot on it.&nbsp\\; Misread the instructions.
&nbsp\\;
Thanks

I have the same ones.&nbsp\\; They need to come back to you.&nbsp\\; If you have not figured it out these are a PIA to get setup.&nbsp\\; If I had to do it all over again I would have bought a simpler straight mount.
