I went with JayBrake forward controls on my '13. Very easy to install and infinitely adjustable. The only issue I had was getting a set that didn't have shipping damage. Their packaging leaves a lot to be desired.

You can tell I'm old - I love the footboards on my SG and wouldn't ever want to replace them with pegs of any kind...JMO.

OP, have you yet followed through on this? I am coming to find I need to lose my floorboards due to scraping and looking at alternatives.

I removed my floorboards and installed Accutronix forward controls, they make some quality products.

I haven't followed through on it..... Now that someone pointed me in the right direction, I'm shopping around..... I just like the control I feel when riding forwards.

I'd like to see them too. I've been on the fence about swapping the boards on my heritage to forwards, I like having the boards since it gives you a couple different options for foor posistion but i find the foot angle i get from forwards more comfortable. Plus when cruising at 85 or higher for extended periods they transmit a lot more of the TC B motor buzz than just pegs. I know i can just slow down a bit but where's the fun in that?
