That looks nice!
So those are for resting your feet while cruising a highway?

Cool!

Yep I've seen others with them and thought they always looked a bit strange but then I got an opportunity to sit on a bike with some and they were great. On one huge ride I did ges ago I remember balancing my heels on the brake pedal and the foot clutch lever! Silly yes but no clues then about highwaybars. These one look superb the photo doesn't do justice.

I bought a set (Kuryakyn) for my Vulcan 1600 a month ago. I got them from PhatPerformanceParts.com for $109.00. Received them in about a week. I installed them on my engine guard, but on the inside bar. They're real comfortable and will rotate 4 inches so they can be adjusted for various size folks.

... Bodie... welcome...

I forgot you also should search by the word "offset". Those are Kuryakin offset dually iso pegs in your pic. Be carefull you get the right engine guard diameter clamp too...

here is a link to at least one source for $125.

I have them on my C50 Bodie. Bought them from my dealer For $89.00 + tax. Offset Small Highway Peg With 1¼" Clamp, made by Kuryakyn part # 7998. The ones I have are exactly as the ones you have pictured.

I bought them from a Harley dealer for $109 for my '07 C90T, and they're nice. I think, however, that if I had it to do over again, I saw a pair with heel supports, and I think they would have been more comfortable. The problem is, if I remember correctly, they're almost $200 from the same dealer.

Default Pegs

Sweet! Have been on the phone talkin to Kuryakin..After some confusion with diameter vs circumference we got there. Stuff over here is a tad expensive and I don't have a price yet but it will be interesting. But they DO look good dont they. Do the offsets lock in anyway onto the bike..I'm sure I read that somewhere? Hate to come back to the bike and see them gone to the four winds. Thanks again folks..why don't you all come to Oz for a bit of a ride!!

There are no locks on them to keep someone from stealing them. All you can do is pray a little, I guess. They sure do dress up the bike, though.

Default Advice

Hey guys (and ladies!) can you give me your opinions here. Zpower Australia sent me these links from Kuryakin. The bars I have you can see in the pic at the top of this thread. Can you look at them and tell me which you think looks good. I don't want anything too bulky sticking out but I really like the offset look. Do I need offset Pegs? Will they look and feel ok without? Need help


The following links are from the USA Kuryakyn Web Site and prices are in US$D. I have added the AUD$ price next to the link

Product Page P/N 4575 AUD$279.95

Product Page P/N 4514 AUD$319.95

Product Page P/N 8033 AUD$179.95

Show Chrome 32mm 1 1/4 Inch Clamp On Highway Pegs P/N 21-334 AUD$249.95

...thank you Bodie...
but what looks good to you is YOUR decision.... they all will look sharp and help you stretch your legs, etc. The prices seem really high tho!

Personally I like the 4575 pn model...exactly what i have. Benefits of that unit are that you have a bit of a flat area to rest your foot so your ankle can relax a bit too (rather than being on rounded peg)....and with the offset, it can adjust forward and back quite a ways (5 or 6 inches at least) so you can find the sweet spot for your legs ...and you can change it up once in a while without reclamping on the your pretty chrome ( pretty sure if I ever move these clamps I will see damaged chrome ).

Does someone have the actual size (lenght etc) of the small pegs vs the larger ones. Are the large ones just potential replacement for rider pegs and not meant for the highway pegs.
When did I become so obsessive? (went riding with a friend who was on an extremely moded HD. So much chrome I needed two pairs of singlasses and a tinted visor!
