I have em here too.... like em much..... But I eventually lost the "arm" just used a P clamp and the pegs only at the widest part of the engine guard, thats just what worked for me.

Yep, I have them. Other than peeling chrome, they're OK.

That's what I use. They are comfortable, I put 30k miles on a set this year.
They are the lowest point on my bike when cornering hard. I keep fresh skinned marks on the bottoms. Raising them up a click makes the ridding position feel too gynecological. These pegs have a dozen adjustment variations, but only one in the comfort zone.
The instaliation instructions were sketchy. There are some weird little compression pins that have to be inserted. They also use SAE allen bolts, so count on adding a couple of different sizes of wrenches to your travel tools, if you do adjustments on the road.
Bottom line, when the time comes, I'll get another set.

just a word of advise, use lock tight on the bolts once you find your "happy" spot, i lost a footpeg on my way to work one morning, the bolt just came undone!

I have them also & like them, but I bought them used from someone who tried them & did not like the fit. I'm 5' 9" & he was taller. I think he went went with the engine guard "curve" mount type. These clamp to the guard brace & sit kind of in front of the valve cover. A word of caution though - as Fudd mentioned, you can adjust these down to where they will touch before your foot pegs. IMO a very dangerious condition. Weight is a factor in how much traction your tires have in a curve. If one touches, the amount of weight it transfers to the road is subtracted from the load your tires are bearing on the road. Could be just enough to loose it.

They came with my bike, along with these guys.  I need to move them around to find a comfortable location. They're mounted behind the engine guard on the piece that is horizontal.

I mounted mine "behind the curve" on the lower part of the guard...  ... instead of sticking straight out, they're kind of swooped back, and the pegs aren't set at level either... there's a lot of degrees of freedom with these pegs to mount them many different ways... -Mike

If you can't find the right position one way, try another. These can sweep back or forward, up or down.  Fred.

Guys thanks for the info those pics REALLY helped I put some cheap hwy pegs on the angle bar to see if the concept would work and it does but the pegs alone aren't enough for comfort looks like the ones you guys got have alot more area and the ones with the heal add on even more has any one seen them with those ISO WINGS on them or used them ?
