Mustangs are 100.00 these are 40.00 is it worth 60.00 more for the Mustangs?

Depends on what you want I suppose.   If your going roadracing then these might be an option but the Mustang ones provide grip and ability to actually stand on pegs

Never had a problem slipping off my mustang pegs with my size 13 boots.  I would not prefer the two piece design since the colored sleeve appears to be held on by a single bolt/screw. A wrong smack would shear it off. Knurling a bit small too.

Aside from that....let see....Chinese pegs or Mustangs?  Really?

I don't know....this seems like a selling point to me:

- Mounting them on bike can upgrade rider's skill when turning the corners

If all I have to do is buy some pegs to upgrade my skill, I'm all over it!!

Now to just remove the tongue that's firmly implanted in my cheek :-)

In a word.......YES

Best mod I have made to the Tiger, full stop, loads more comfortable and nicely made. Those are for rear set racing pegs and strike me as positively uncomfortable

+1 for Mustangs again, even with the postage to the UK I thought they were good value, I bought Touratech ones before and they were dearer than Mustangs and nowhere near as good, they broke the first time the old feline decided to have a lie down.

Go for the Mustang pegs, I'm 6'3 and have tried some different options and found Mustang's to be a good fit and very well made.
