Looking for some ideas on highway pegs. I have a 2007 currently with Aeileron pegs. Just installed a HD Sundowner saddle. Looking for something adjustable that I can stretch the legs a little more. What has worked for some of you long-legged riders out there.

Kuryakyn 360

I am running Kuryakyn 360's and the Harley stock pegs. The 360's give you a lot of flexability with leg position. I am 6"2 and if I kick them all the way out I can't reach them sitting in the saddle. You don't have to run thier pegs.

Can`t find them..

i have the Kury switchblades. they have the heel stirup, which is nice to hang your heels in ...it uses different set of muscles than pushing against a peg so i can switch between the two.
Could not find Switchblades on their site...hmm
Do you have pics of yours you could post or the product link please.
Thanks Slate :)

Looks good

Thanks for the picture. They look good;)
Do you use the heal part much? I'm curious about the comfort of the heal and does your heal ever fall off or is it pretty stable? I think these are the ones for me ;)

you can rotate them down so more weight is on the heel ... its cupped so your heel is supported by it.... that allows you to rest the muscles that you had been using to press against the toe piece... i find that it allows me to stretch and rest more than just pegs do...i have them positioned with the offset mount so my legs are fully extended, knees locked

i run the long angled hd ones (short legs). but if you have really long legs you can angle them forward. mine are angled back and low enough that i can rest my heel on the floorboard and put my toes on the highway peg. kinda like forward controls.

Slate, I had already commented on the highway peg portion of this post, but I had to chime in again to say damn your ride looks good. Well done.

No worries Slate, I was still trying to figure out how to get the 3" Off Sets b4 ordering...once I got that nailed down...it will be my next purchase...thanks again for the help.

hope you like them....make sure you use locktite on all the bolts and tighten them....you get allot of leverage on those heel stirrups, the one side tends to loosen up easily ....i also carry the right size allen wrenches in my saddlebag.

Some positioning to be made..

..Not sure I put them at the best height...Just noticed your set up is very different than what I did with mine. Guess it's all about comfort ;) Will refer back to yours Slate if I see mine does'nt work ;)
