Well, I decided during the weekend to install my mid controls back on my bike and removed the forward controls.
I have to admit, they feel great, I forgot how well the bike felt with them. So for now I am sticking with the mids. I am not sure if I will end up selling the forwards or hang on to them?

Anyone else do this??

I see tons of folks going from mids to forwards but not many going the other way. Wifey is 5'4 100 lbs, her Sporty came with mids, we replaced with forwards and she never looked back. Says it handles much better for her. Good luck though.

I like my mids with Highway pegs.

I haven't done it, but I had forwards on my 1200C and really liked them. I thought hard about putting forwards on my FXDC, but decided to stick with the highway pegs on my engine guard. It gives me the best of both worlds. I've also noticed that my butt doesn't get as tired with the mids because less weight is on my tailbone.

I kinda want to try forwards on my street bob, are you looking to sell them?

EDIT: I mean if you are interested in selling them let me know

I put a set of forward Kury's on my FXD and I am contemplating going back to mids myself. I was just getting used to them when I took them off. Maybe I sould switch next month and see which ones I like.
