I was thinking of putting the Big Radius 2 into 2 on my 09 Street Glide, but when I called V&H to ask some questions, they told me the right side pass footpeg will be relocated up about an inch & forward about 1/2 inch whereas the left side could not be relocated due to something Harley did different on the 09s. Any feedback from passengers on rear footpegs? It would seem to me they would complain about it being awkward if not uncomfortable.

I have 'em on my 2010 Street Glide and haven't had any complaints from passengers. I don't think they notice unless you point it out.
I have thim on my 2007 Road King Custom and yes the right side passenger floorboard is now 1/2" higher and 1/2" moved forward. I raised the left side and it is not quite even with the right. My wife says its no big deal when we're riding. I absolutely love these pipes. They sound like my brothers small block 350 when I am idling. When at cruising speed they are nice and quiet, but when you give the gas, they are awesome!! These pipes look great too!!
I been debating BR as well. I read the OP got a new bike but I figured I would post anyways. My passenger boards hit me in the back of the legs so with them moved forward might not be a good thing.
I have been kicking around the thought of these pipes since I got my RK, I have seen pics of the pipes, but there is something I haven't seen.....where the pipes aren't. Can someone please post a pic of the rear and left side of your bike with the big radius, preferably on a RK

I got a bracket from V&H that moved the left floorboard to pretty much the same location as the right. No one had complained about it before but I grabbed one anyways.
