Does the foot stay stable on it or is there a tendency to slip from it? How about cornering clearance? Looks interesting, appreciate all feedback.

not sure yet,Bobino....just go them on and had to run to town with the wife. im gonna take it out later tonight if the rain holds off. ill let ya know when i get back.

the reason i went with these is i took a ride on a SG with these on it and loved it. it was just a test drive so i really didnt put it through the paces. another reason is i have a short inseam and i just dont like my legs on highway pegs on the highway bar.

I have had these for about a month or 2.... My feet stay put and are stable. But I think that has alot to with your height and seat position. As far as cornering, If you know your in the twistes you fold them away. But if you leave them out they will just flop up when they make contact with the ground. Over all I am happy with them. I got these because I was wanting fwd controls but don't want to loose my eng crash bar or feel like spending 1k on foot controls and not liking them.

They mount to your floor board. Just pop the foot pad off drill a few holes and bolt it up. They come with 2 set screws to adjust the angle of the pegs.

Love mine. On my SG with a Sundowner legs kicked out on the blades I am laid out comfortable.

You cannot manipulate them while riding (at least not safely) but when they are out they will flip up when banked to the point they touch.
