Highway Peg Recommendations
Needing some input from you all regarding highway pegs for the Ultra. I finally picked her up yesterday and after some riding realized I might like to stretch out a bit on the road. I am going to leave the lowers on for the time being and I am somewhat vertically challenged (5'9") so they might need to be somewhat adjustable. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Oh and by the way the bike is awesome!!

Here is the mount I have. These wrap around the lowers. Just pick whatever peg you like.

I use the long HD mounts that Babbob gave the link to. I've got them set so I can rest my heel on the floorboards and my toes on the peg, or strech out and be totally on the peg. I like having several options.

I have the same setup as Harleywood ("360's" by HD aka "Longhorns" by Kuryakyn), but I'm changing to the TourTechs (aka "HD Adjustables").
To clear the lowers with the Longhorns, you have to flip the mounting clamp forward (which reduces a good portion of the pull back). The result is a mount that goes forward first, then pulls back some.
The TourTechs are simply a cleaner design going imediately back (and the short TourTechs actually pull back closer to the rider than the Longhorns).
The only thing about the TourTechs is figuring out which length you want (long or short arms). Best way to tell is to figure out where you plan to rest your foot in relation to the edge of the faring (I only rest my toes on my pegs, and the short TourTechs come back past the lip of the lower far enough to suit my reach).

Why dont you look for a set that matches the stock footboards? Or....if your planning on changing the look of the bike a bit like I did on my Street Glide....I switched from the stock Streamliner series boards, shift peg, and brake pedal over to the Ironside collection....and I also added the Ironside grips as well.
When you decide what you want to do....keep the stock look or switch to one of HD's collections then go for the highway pegs, so everything matches....no?
