I got the Kury cruiser boards coming. I like the whole board concept and have used pegs for years but decided for something different. Try to get pics up when they come in

Are you running the Kury Switchblades on the Ultra too? Reason I'm asking is I had them on my '07 SG with lowers, and even after I added the Longhorn offsets I couldn't find a good mounting position that was comfortable, the fairing lowers really limited the amount of movement/positioning,

I took them off the SG before I traded her in, and I'm planning on mounting them on the Ultra (but I'm not anticipating much more success...).

Got any close-up pix that you can share? FWIW, I'm 6' tall with a 32" inseam.

I have mine mounted in a similar position. Makes it nice to stretch the legs out.

360's and love them, yes the lower fairling does limit it some, but I found the sweet spot for me... I'm 6'2" and rarely ride totally on the hwy pegs, I like my heel on the boards...

I like 'em where I have 'em. Only problem is right side is a little close to the brake pedal.

Tight - experiment to find the best position for you and tighten everything down.

I don't have pics of mine but I like them set so I can still have my heel on the floorboards most of the time - very comfortable. However, I can just hook my heel on the pegs if I really want to stretch out. Have to be careful to not have them so close that they interfere with your brake.
