I have an 04 DWG and without a windshield, I feel like my feet are always about 2 seconds from flying off the forward controls. If I had a heel bar, or even floor boards it might be better. Can it be done. Mind you I am only 5'9

Cheers!

 

I have Kuryakyn stirrups on my 98 FXDWG. They work well for me.

Hey Scotch. I have the Kuryakn Switchblades and haven't had any problems. Ride Safe.

 

Scotch what footwear are you using. I have found that if the soles are to soft they get bounced around a lot. But I would say heelrests are the way to go on the WG. Footboards just would not look right to me.

 

How fast are you traveling on that scoot? [sm=gears.gif]

 

I live in LA, so commuter traffic is 70 in the slow lane

 

Use the heel rests. Very comfortable, and (IMO) look better on a dyna than foot boards.

 

Where do you feet stay on the pegs when you are crusing? I have some long legs and am right on the edge of the pegs with my heels. I did buy some larger pegs, that handle the size 12 better and that seemed to help somewhat, more comfortable but was also looking at the switchblades. I measured for some floorboards once and did not find anything that would fit with the engine guard. Just something to consider.

I am a long legged 5-9 but I sit with my feet in the middle of the peg. I have HD forward controls with the flamed rubber. Prolly should see what HD offers for a heel rest huh?

Thanks for the input, I will let you know what I find out!

 

I'm for the Switchblades, too. I've had them for a couple years and they work great with my 2 inch extended (I'm 6'7") forward controls. My feet stay on the pegs even when cruising at 130+ mph.
