Default Mustache Engine Guard

Here's my problem. I have a 31" inseam so standard hyway pegs are to far to reach. I have the Rotating kind that get them close enough but that puts the right one near the brake pedal. To close for comfort and I don't like the look. I was thinking about going to the mustache guard in hopes that my feet could reach the pads and my knees would be at a comfortable angle. Anybody using them have any comments? Thanks

I'm about your size and have the mustache guard. I just didn't like the looks of the highway pegs. I don't use the pads a lot but they are nice to give your legs a break and shift your weight on the seat. I think it looks great also. Go for it.

I have a Mustache engine guard , and added adjustable foot peg support with some left over foot
pegs because Mustache pads are a reach for my feet to be comfortable.

Just go get some of Harley or Kuryakyn long offsets. They will bring the pegs back far enough.

I had the mustache guard on my heritage and had no problem reaching it with a 32" inseam.

Forgot to add my knees were at a fairly comfortable angle. I didn't ride with my legs up a lot but it was fine when i wanted to stretch out for awhile.

Thanks for the feedback. The offsets is what I was trying to say when but I called them rotating (brain freeze?)
