Default Forward controls on Street Glide
Any good/reasonably priced Forward controls for street glides? Anyone have them? I dont like floor boards.

Man i asked the same type question way back before i bought my road glide. I am not a floor board fan either! I found sets for $800, i'll be following this thread and maybe find a decent set as well. $800 is nuts...

The Accutronix give you pegs but don't move your foot forward if you want extra legroom.

Why don't you just put a highway peg setup on it that mimics where forward controls are? Just keep your feet on those when you're not braking or shifting.

It's not the same thing. You can't get your highway pegs in the same position that forward controls would be. The shifter and brake pedal are in the way. I love forward controls, but they aren't compatible with fairing lowers. I don't want to give up the lowers, mostly because of the many rainy days we have in the pac nw.

I had JayBrake forward controls on my 2004 Road King and loved them, cost around $500.00, bought a 2010 Streetglide and they won't fit, have to sell these before I purchase set fot the glide. easy to install and very comfortable.

Man, a Street Glide without boards is just, well...., wrong. IMO.

How much do you want for the controls off your road king?
