I've seen no end of photos with highways pegs or what ever you guys in the States call e'm def an American thing,when riding long distance particularly with my right boot,I have the front tip  just balance on the peg with the heel jammed on the exhaust guard,worked well for a 1000 miler.

Thanks

Chris ... I resemble that remark 8) .  My knees can't handle more than a couple hours of 75-90 degree bend (long legs?).  And, feet are on the pegs for all of the fun stuff - definitely better cotrol to be had on the pegs.

That said:  Shannon - bout your only limiting factor is the diameter of your crash bars.  Figure that and a world of options opens for you.  I pulled mine off the shelf at my tire shop - I wish they'd had something less bright than chrome, but my knees thanked me immediately (installed'm in the parking lot).  Heck, I istalled a set bought from the first motorcycle dealership I passed when riding a rented harley from Texas to New Hampshire - I needed them well before I found a dealership on that ride.

You can search highway pegs on Ebay or Amazon for more options than I can sort here.  The key to the fitment is knowig the diameter of your crash bars.[/url]
