designknd, i also am only 5ft. 5 with a 26in. inseam. So if you find the right combo for us shorter riders please post. This is something I also want to do to my ride. Right now I just hang my legs overthe stock pegs for a different leg position. Thanks 58nluvnit.

I have a pair of the Kuryakyn offset peg mounts on my Harley forwards. Her are a couple pics to give you an idea of what they look like installed. Don't know if this will help you visualize what they will look like on the forwards. Please excuse the captions on the pics.

Just so ya know, the forward controls on a streetbob actually sit back farther than on a wideglide. I tried both at the dealer and the wideglide is a stretch for me and the bob is comfortable. I think it has something to do with the seat positioning. Also, if you can fabricate, you can make a set ofadapter platesout of 1/4" steel to move the forwards back an inch or two.

Limey, you had the magic set-up!

58nluvnit, I picked up the adjustable highway mounts (part #49002-98) and they are perfect. What is also great about them is they are about 40 dollars cheaper then the standard mounts. They have 2 settings only, but the one that places them closer to the rider is probably gonna work great for you, it works great for me.

I want to thank everyone for sharing their knowledge with me, you were all a big help.

I've got the HD adjustable highway pegs on my 07 streetbob set in the closer, higher position, at 5:9 with short legs they are perfect for me. i can brake and downshift just fine using the highway pegs and still give the legs a good stretch.
