Any thoughts on these two styles of Higway pegs?

This type you have to drill holes in your floorboards http://www.aeromach.net/cat_pg1.html check out their axle bullets...they are pretty cool too.

and the other type as in picture attached. I have seen neither in person so I am a little leary on ordering them online at this time. I do need to stretch my legs and will have to get something.

I like this style but i have crash bars on mine would it be possible to mount them on the boards while keeping the crash bars?

Miked · « **Reply #2 on:** January 28, 2007, 09:28:02 AM »

I believe the one that you show in the picture above are made by Kyurakin, not sure how to spell that. I inquired about them before. The dealership didn't drill into the floor board, and later decided that they couldn't without changing the buckshot floorboards out. So I ended up the OEM mustache bars that have the rubber bads on the top for your feet. I'm 6-1 and road from Atlanta to Key West and back, it was comfy and a good resting position. Check out the pictures in the category, nacelle finally completed, mine is the first bike on there, yellow and cobalt.

Wow that looks intresting, can you post a pic when you have it installed, I'd like to see it on the bike. I also thought of something mounting off the down tubes, but I'm afraid of mussin up the paint in case they ever get removed, whats your thoughts.

Full Throttle · « **Reply #16 on:** February 07, 2007, 04:53:59 AM »

I will post a pic once they are installed. I was thinking once I have determined the exact positioning I will put this hard rubber tape less than 2mm thick on the bar. If the clamps come completely apart it shouldnt be a problem. Hopefully this will be enough to prevent scratching. We will soon find out

I too like the looks of that bar, think it would work great, and would be interested in seeing pics of it on. Are you planning on using the matching Aileron foot pegs? I used them for the passenger pegs and like the way they look on the bike, so figured I would use them for the highway pegs as well.

WORTH A LOOK

http://www.granpas.com/HighwayBar.htm

NorEaster · « **Reply #20 on:** March 03, 2007, 08:44:49 AM »

I have a couple of observations on the Granpa's, which of course are just my opinions. The mounting location has the advantage of using the stock location at the top of the down tubs where the factory highway bars are designed to mount. This will prevent any potential scratching of the paint on the down tubs. The disadvantage of this location is it is only a single mounting location and does not provide much side to side stability for the bars, since it is only a single point of mounting. The factory bars use two additional mounting locations so do not have this drawback. The other observation I have is the ends do not look as nicely finished on the Granpa's as on the J&P Cycle's highway bar. The one thing I can not tell though is the quality of each of their chrome finishes. My thoughts based on their websites only.

Full Throttle · « **Reply #21 on:** March 05, 2007, 12:33:57 AM »

There are advantages and disadvantages to both. Reading the reviews of the grampa bars many commented how they protected their bikes when they were dumped. For myself I I dont like having the pegs that high and legs that close together when cruising. I prefer lower and wider, everyone is different but its what i like

I am getting the ones from JP Cycles and will post pics when installed. But the bike mods are on hold until I get back from Margarita Island...where there is a small HD Dealer and fatboys to rent

Gas is 15 cents a gallon and unbelievable oceanview property cheap! May not come back! Well maybe to ship my SE Hehehe....I've already inquired about shipping

altugo · « **Reply #22 on:** March 05, 2007, 08:11:47 AM »

Please dont let this thread die.I got crashbars on mine and i hate the look.If someone has an alternative i would love to switch.I like the low and wide position too.Do any of these offer a similar protection as regular engine guards do?If so i would switch in a heart beat.

NorEaster · « **Reply #23 on:** March 05, 2007, 02:30:55 PM »

I too am not real impressed with the looks of the standard crash bars. Although the HD Mustache bar is better than most. I think lower and wider will ultimately be the most comfortable too, but have not tried any first hand so really can't say for sure. And while the highway bars being discussed will offer some protection, I don't think they will offer as much as the three point mounted crash bars. But for me it is about looks first, comfort second, and protection third.

When I tried to visit the extended discussion with the link "here" I was sent to the original temporary screen with no further references. So, I'll put in my two cents again.

The Mark IV's set up as one of the best mods I have ever done. It changed my riding position from floorboard uncomfortable to extremely relaxed extension of my legs and crusing position. I threw in a picture or two incase you wanted to see it instead of researching the current dead end. (I know it is temporary, no insult intended)

kona76 · « **Reply #26 on:** March 20, 2007, 12:49:39 PM »

The Mark IV's are fully adjustable, rotating forwards or backwards depending on inseam. The modifications to extend outword are available and installed in minutes. Now the mod to the spoiler is more work, trust that. I really love the setup without moustache or handlebars or bulky overly outstretched hardware. It's tight, low and versatile.

Yeah, that's too easy. I think you lose the center support. Have you tried taking off the spoiler, attach the crossbar and try it out? To me it was a completely different ride experience. I kept feeling that one side or the other was going to break free, or cross up or something. That's why I modified the spoiler in the first place. The crossbar is attached underneath the spoiler cover with lots of room there to work with.

In any case, I just wanted to point out the "design" of the cross bar seemed important enought to try it out at the very least.

fastboy, wow, sounds like great idea, but i am a little confused, doesnt the nose cone cover the holes where the arms bolt up to the frame, or did you use the hole under the stock floorboards, if you can take a picture please do, i would love to see what you have done.

I took off the nose cone,used flat headed bolts like rear fender strut bolt.You put them in from the backside so threads stick out,there is just enough room to gel the nose cone back on with some force.I will get some pics when my bike gets off the hoist.Installing Zipper cam today.

fastboy, I had one more question, are you adding the Mark IV's with the stock floorboards, there has been a question if they would work with them, it appears that the OEM floorboard brackets may be too far forward to allow clearance for the Mark IV's

06fastboy2 · « **Reply #34 on:** March 27, 2007, 09:25:10 PM »

Can anyone who installed the markIV"s tell me if it looks like this option could stand a minor drop of the bike without damage? Looks like with the mounting on the frame and the brackets they use it could withstand a fall, not at speed mind you.

I install the nostalgic bars on mine now that wify has been riding it but I just don't like the look and would be interested in putting the markIV's on if it would still offer some kind of protection as she has only been riding for two years.

Thanks Aussie, I have never had the nose cone off yet, but I was under the assumption from reading the install file from Kuryakyn, that there were tabs welded to the frame to which the arms and cross bar attached, obviously this is not the case, this is too easy

if I feel its weak I'm thinkin that one can make up a couple of small adapter plates that would allow you to connect the cross bar under the nose cone and still give you the extra rigidity without having to modify the nose cone.

fastboy thanks for the insight & pics,

I was wondering how much adjustment is availible, you have them pretty low and close to the board, can they go up a bit higher and more forward for people with long legs.

Thanks for all the help

06fastboy2 · « **Reply #48 on:** April 10, 2007, 09:45:05 PM »

There is 1 hole on the footboard mount that these Kuryakyn Mark IV's use.The only way to use the center crossmember is to cut through the nose cone.The center crossmember doesn't bolt to anything,it just has two nuts that tighten up snug against the outside arms,they just provide outward pressure against the arms.I'm 5'9 and can just barely reach them,this is as far back as they come,you can go forward some.Also they make a set for taller riders that look like they go forward and up more.Mine could hit on hard cornering.Will get more pics in a couple days,right now it's getting Dyno tuned for the Zipper's cams.All highway pegs seem to have their faults but these look pretty good and made the bike a lot nicer to ride on longer trips

Aussie, I believe his cone is in tact,

he is not using the crossmember which requires modifying it to pass between the two sides, as long as your not going to stand on them, it seems they would be strong enough.
and like I said above you can probably make your own crossmember by bending up a long u shaped piece of 1/4" stainless flat stock that could sit just under the nose piece and come up and bolt to both sides for added strength

The first test I did on the 05 SEFB was without the cross member installed. I don't know about anyone else, but I am on the Hwy Pegs alot and the last thing I wanted was an unstable front end modification. It just doesn't feel right without the cross member installed. Maybe it's just me. IMHO of course.

EAGLE1 · « **Reply #60 on:** May 02, 2007, 10:57:29 PM »

I took one arm off to see the clearance issue with the cone in position, and I believe the flatheads are a must, but flat heads have a tapered head so I think I will have to countersink the bracket to let them sit flush with the bracket and then the cone will just squeak in. I'm not sure if Fastboy did this or not, may be he could chime in, but in any case I will do this in the shop tommorrow regardless. I'm glad I bought a used set instead of new, I would have had a little heartburn drillin on a new set of arms, I dont have any pegs yet, tryin to get a cheap set on E-bay as well, but I'm a little concerned about how much adjustment these things really have, If I dont like my foot placement they may just go back on the auction block.

the extended version seem to sit higher, and I think I will like this, I like to rest my heel on the board and streach my toes out to the mark IV's. since i'm not using the center brace I think this will put less weight on them and keep them from taking too much stress.

other side

I think they are high enough where they will not have any scraping issues

I think I can get them to go another 1/2 inch higher by putting in the set screws and jackin them all the way up

I need to try them out and see how i like this position, they have lots of front to back adjustment but not mush up down adjustment

I've put a 1000 miles on now with the Mark IV's on, they are still tight.They make a world of difference in comfort.

Thanks, for you help fastboy, I would have never pushed the button and bought a pair if it wasnt for you showing me how easy these things attached, no need for center support whatsoever as long as you dont stand on em, and the extended ones work great for me, The Beer is on me if we ever cross paths

Your opinion

I am only 5’10, my inseam is only 30", and I got the extended reach arms anyway, I really think its the way to go. I keep my heels on the board and just rest my toes on the pegs and I can strech out very nicely and getting back to the controls is quick and easy.

Glad to see ya joined up Dean

Eagle1: how have the Mark IVs been holding up? Would you consider them strong enough for holding the weight of your whole foot (not resting your heels on the floor boards)?

Kona76: how can I modify my spoiler cone? (myself that is...pretty straight forward?)

Thanks

I put my legs over resting on my ankles all the time,after 2000 miles no problems.

They are pretty strong, I wouldn't stand on them but they will support your whole foot, its just more comfortable the way I have them set up. I'll get a pic to show you.
