Are highway pegs worth the expense?

[Copperman]

I, too, have a set...

I just ordered a set of the Rivcos today and a set of their pegs.

that I bought last fall at Spyders in the Smokeys.

I wasn't sure I was going to like them, but, I'm now a believer! If you do a lot of highway miles, like me, then they're a necessity. You really can sit back and enjoy the ride. And after you get used to them, they're very comfortable. What I like most about them is they keep your feet close in so you're not riding spread eagled.

We should have bought the Highway Pegs

Thank you to all who responded to my post. We just rode 8 days on the bike and regret not buying the highway pegs before the trip. Hubby is planning to purchase and install very soon.

I like the look of the chrome Rivco model. They don't splay your legs as much as others do I am told.

Maybe on the RT... on my RS, the Rivco pegs are so wide they might as well come with a free Doctor's exam. nojoke

 

[CARA @ RIVCO]

Anything you buy for your ride will be worth it over time. As far as the hi-way pegs, if he likes the position of his feet, then buy them. Where he puts them now is not designed for the added weight and they will fail.

RIVCO, a sight sponsor, has a nice pair that keeps your feet in a little closer to the bike. Well worth the money!

Thank you SO MUCH for recommending our product and I am glad you enjoyed them!!

Which ones keep you less wide and keep your legs closer to the bike? Rivco or Lamonts?

Lamont and Jacob at Lamonster Garage installed a set on our new RT last week. I'm very glad I got them. They work great and I think they look great too!

Not Just yes but....

Hell Yes !!!!

Can always sell

:agree: But with any extra ,you wont know till you try your way:thumbup:. Think it would be good fit if he already props feet up. :yikes: Caution there tho. One stray rock stuck in bottom of boot or shoe tread & could be costly & ugly scratch!nojoke The highway pegs also offer better safty position ( designed to not be akward to quickly reach brake. Food for thought.

With Seals, you have a built-in hwy peg. because they are so long. I ride with my heels at the tip of the bend then just slide back and brake with my heel. Smooth.

Ride in comfort,

What did you use for that extension? I'm guessing this is the Lamonster pegs?

Lamonster brackets,and Kuryakyn pegs off my Harley. Spacers and bolts were bought from outside source and went 1-1/2 inch longer on the spacer and 1-3/4 on the bolt. They are adjustable forward or closer to driver if needed.
