You can mount them where ever you would like, find a spot where you are comfortable when riding. You can always adjust them if you decide you would like them at a different location on the engine guard

I've changed my mind. Mounting them up high is the only correct answer.

Nothing says DILLIGAF like jeans up to your knees with your hair in the breeze.

Same here, I mounted mine at the highest point...do any of you ever notice, your highway pegs if mounted low, can possibly hit the pavement when cornering?

Of course, I always try to upright my pegs when getting ready to ride the twistys, but I did have a close call at one point when my pegs were low...

Ok, took the advise, mounted them, grabbed the tools, and went for a ride. Few adjustments later, I'm all set. Really like the idea of using them as an extension of the floorboards, so that's how I have it set up, while maintaining the clearance in corners. Happy camper!

Now if only I liked my new Mustang Tripper Solo seat as much........

Thats the way I mounted the also. I tried mounting them up high. It puts to much pressure on my tailbone.

How timely ........... I've got a set to install ........

Will the clamp leave a mark on the crash bar, each time I move them ?

Mine haven't left a mark, and neither have the daymaker fog light brackets, which I had to move temporarily to fit the peg bracket on between the bar and the lower.
