I have had both...but on my old ACE, not the Valk.  I prefered the Switchblades over the wings, but I am also used to pegs.  I don't know how well the wings would work with the valve covers right there where your toes might end up.

It depends on where you intend to put them. 

I don't think having swing down heels (switchblades) on the drivers peg mounts would be good.

I love my iso-wings. Use them for both driver and passenger pegs.

Well you're going to get a variety of opinion.  I did not like the ISO-Wings at either the rider or passenger position.  At the rider position I found it awkward to operate the controls.  I have a set of Wings and the extensions installed on a shelf in the workshop.

Here's what I use on the engine guards (not underneath, outside at 3 and 6 O'clock)... no kit comes with 1 1/8" clamps thou.  Small Iso pegs, stirrups, male mount to clevis, 1 1/8" quick clamps.  (and stirrup filler pieces).  4050s on the other bike.

If you already have extensions coming from down low on the engine guards, then I would just use Dually pegs alone.  (like the 4050s)
