Default Highway Peg Question

Has anybody tried these?

At 5'10" I am not long legged,but would like to be able to stretch a bit, and the regular highway pegs that clamp directly to the engine guards, are just a bit too stretched out for my tast.

I don't have those, but I have a set of offset mounting brackets that swivel 360. Let's you mount the pegs with the brackets towards you, away from you, or anywhere inbetween. I think they are the Kuryakyn offset mounts, and the pegs are the Kuryakyn Isopegs. This would work for you easily at 5'10".

Yes, I just put them on prior to my trip to Daytona from Michigan and they are excellent. I got the long angled as I am 5'8" but could have gone with the shorts shown in your link. Highly recommended except for the H-D price, as usual, that $99 does not include the footpegs themselves (add another $49 for ones shown).

That is nice! Multiple positions is good. When I need a real stretch I put my heels on the pegs but I don't think it is very safe for reaction time. I like your solution, you may have given me a Santa idea .

ER,

Ya know, sometimes when I'm cruzin' on the highway with both legs stretched out horizontally on the top iso wings, it feels like a leaf blower going up my trousers.

Kinda like riding in your birthday suit - a real blow-ing job upstream

All the various positions available make it easy for an old fart like me (51) to ride non-stop between tanks - did 390 miles yesterday with one fillup pit stop.
