Willie, I used the rear pegs that came with the bike.  If you don't have need for a passenger, you could move them to the front and just put on a chrome washer and bolt for those rear mounts and it would finish off well.

You know, I almost replied, "that depends on the size of your boots" , but then I realized that I actually put my feet close to where the pegs attach so most of the peg is actually exposed.  guess you just have to make your own judgement..........  Which you have.     :D

Thanks for the pictures they look awesome on your bike. Any reason why you didn't choose the twin bar. I thought having the fold out pegs would be a nice option.

Didn't feel the need for those, I only wanted a place to stretch out on Long trips, and these will work fine.
Plus I didn't like the added $$$ !

Hey, Willie, though I am not sold on the pewter/brown distressed leather package, I think that is one fine engine guard!!  Never realized it before but the corners on it do indeed match the handlebars above and keeps the theme going.  Now if only someone would make matching saddlebag guards for the bike, the missus would be safer as well as the rider.  Again, I think it accentuates the bike fine, man!   the Porkster.                 and the set of highway pegs I put on mine would do well on that bar as well.

These come close and are made by Lindby as well and match the Linbar.

I agree that it would be nice to have one that matches the Convertible's lines.  I have the Linbar on mine as well and it looks great.
