Adjustable Highway pegs. I have them set to the closer setting. My problem is the far setting it is to far and the close setting is a tiny bit too close and sometimes I feel like my heel will get wedged between the peg and brake (or shifter). I just purchased a set of Kury x-tension peg mounts (#4515) from a forum member. They should bump the pegs out a little further forward, and I believe they will stick out i bit further as well. I have a 30" inseam.

My highway bar set up from post #2 (see below link) can be rotated 180 degrees for really close, really far, way up or down low. I've got my pegs set up so that my heel can access the rear brake pedal without hardly moving my foot.

I took the engine guard and pegs off today and added the adjustable highway pegs that I got from another forum member. Definitely like the looks of the bike better without the engine guard. I agree that there is more flexibility for mounting the pegs to the engine guard but the adjustable highway pegs feel pretty comfortable. Thanks for all the input and recommendations.

I might be interested in some sort of Highway pegs, provided they weren't too far forward. The stock forwards are a bit too much of stretch for me; I'd need something in the same sort of position as the new reduced reach forwards:
Is there anything like that, that I could get?
I suppose I could get some of the parts used for the reduced reach forwards, and just leave out the control lever parts?
Or maybe make something like these highway peg kits, making different shaped plates, putting the pegs in a different position:

Hey Gamble, If you reverse those harley pegs shown in your second pics then at the closest position, the mounts will line up with the frame. You'll be able to downshift and brake with your heels....
