Hey Shanel, do yourself a favor, save your money and don't even bother with the highway pegs. But that's just my opinion. Firstly, the SPAAN highway bars I bought have a crap chrome job done on them. I've only had mine on since September, and they've started to go rusty already and I keep my bike clean and shedded, so it's not like it's been left out in the elements or anything. So for now I've taken them back off coz they look sh**. Secondly, what I found for me anyway, was that when your riding along with your legs stretched nicely out on the pegs, your sitting with all your bodyweight right on your tailbone. So if you hit a reasonable size bump in the road, it feels like your tailbone has been jammed up into the base of your skull. To be honest, I've found the way the foot peg setup just the way the bike comes stock, seems to be the best riding position believe it or not.
Also when I first got the highway bars, before I even put the pegs on, I was riding out through one of the mountain ranges nearby, where there are some beautiful sweeping bends and halfway into one of them there was just a little bit of a dip, and I managed to scrape the bottom on one of the bars. I was hooking in a bit though I must admit. So just keep that in mind too.
So after all my buggerizing around, I've taken my windscreen, highwaybars and pegs back off. Oh yeah I bought some SPAAN mirrors too and guess what ... yep, I took those back off too coz they had a bloody sh** chrome job on them as well. So she's all back to stock except for the sissy bar and saddlebag standoffs. I might get the highway bars rechromed, I haven't really decided yet, but I won't bother with the pegs if I do.
Anyway, hopefully I might have saved you some money Shanel.
Best regards,
Hairy Bob.
