If your looking to add a few more miles to your ride than this is a must have farkel. High-way pegs allow you to stretch out your legs and it helps prevent your knees from stiffening up.
I had originally mentioned I would be making the pegs out of high strength aluminum. I changed my mind on that, the pegs themselves are still alum but the main support/connecting rods are steel. The hwy-pegs can be powder-coated in damn near any color you choose including clear coat or chrome Lips Sealed. I currently am using a gloss or a flat black.
I have two styles available. 1) The VC (vertically challenged)
2) Standard Model
The pegs mount into a factory bolt hole. Remove the radiator support bolt and screw in the stud at the end of the pegs. You do have to do some modifying to the internal heat shields; but this is true of any high-way pegs you are installing. None of the 'internal' modifications can be seen from the outside nor does it affect the bike in anyway. The pegs are grooved and knurled for anti-slip protection.
This a pic of the VC 'vertically challenged' mount. I am right at 6'0 and they still feel great. This mounting location moves the pegs back around 2-3". Since the set that I made for myself I have cleaned up the squared edges on the clevis block. You do have to drill a hole into your fairing for the VC model; although it does It does look professional/factory when completed
The Standard model requires no cutting of the fairing for 94 and up bikes.
This pic is for demonstration purposes only. It is showing the mounting location for the Standard set.

The VC units MAY help prevent damage in the event of a low speed drop (DAMHIK)
I can only presume that the Standard set would give the same amount of protection (not tested so i cannot guarantee this).
VC set: $100.00 shipped Cont US
Standard set $140.00 shipped Cont US

I can coat all hardware with just about any color that you desire. Here are some of the samples that I do have on hand:
Thanks for looking...
