Default Highway Pegs and Other Mods For Us Short Riders

Post your "Short leg" mods


I'm 5-6" and have 30" inseam.
I have a 2015 Ultra "Low" and love it.
Only mod (if you can call it that) is highway pegs that mount to the floorboards. Kuryakyn makes them #7535 are 2" and #7536 are 4". I just got a set of 2" brand new in a damaged box from Dennis Kirk via EBay for $66 delivered. Just installed the right side. Getting 8" of snow by tomorrow night so won't be able to try them out for a few days. Fully adjustable at both joints. Pegs not included.

Now I need to find a lower brake peddle.

I'd be very interested to hear if they scrape in corners. I don't push it but these look like they could touch down easily......

I like those, I had the kuryakan flip blades and I did not like them. I think these would work more like I want as a highway peg and as toe rest. I like to keep my heels on the boards and the toes up on the pegs if that makes sense.

Yes but they are mud collectors and probably(but might be) not waterproof. Not knocking them as I have the RedWing version that are waterproof, but they are heavy and collect mud like crazy. I now wear these.
Bates Tahoe, completely 100% waterproof. I can stand in puddles over my ankle completely submerged and my feet stay dry. At least half the weight of my loggers and no laces.

Yes, makes sense to me as that's how I adjusted them to be used as well as my heal on top of them so I can fully attest have my legs out on a full fuel run.

A new company owned by the former owner of Kury called Ciro makes them also. Had them installed at Daytona Bike Week. I love them.

I had those on my Fatboy because I didn't have an engine guard to mount any. Loved them.
