Default Big radius Question ?

I m thinking about selling my D&D and switching to the big radius. My question is, the right side has a relocation bracket for the passenger peg. Im also thinking about doing floor boards for my wife.
How high does it raise that side and will it will noticeable to my wife.

The bikes a 2009

I am almost certain that I have seen this done. Try and call Vanceand hines. Gotta love a bagger with the Big Radius pipes.

I asked this a while back and I believe someone who did it said it moved the peg up about 1 inch.

I read that on their site. I was just wondering, if passenger would notice a huge difference.

I have it on my RoadKing Classic and my wife does not notice it or at least she hasn't complained about it. I think you can get a bracket for the left side to even them up if you wanted to but I have not done it. I love the Big Radius on my bike, I have Thunder Monster Baffles in them and it sounds good. I need to update my signature pic, maybe when its back together this spring I will get some new pics.
