Do the grips have any rough surface to them, or rubber inserts? you will need something to give you a good grip.
Pegs, not sure about the slippyness, but they would have to have good chroming to withstand the abuse they will receive.

I had the flame chrome pegs and foot pedals that Harley sells, on my 07 Sporty. They could get Really slippery. There were a couple of times in the rain that I had trouble with my brake pedal due to it being slippery. Nothing that would compromise safety, but it was something to keep in mind.

My bike had a buckshots on it when i bought it. Man they sucked. Slick as all get-up.

One of the first things I did was order a set of PM Renthals. They make purty chrome ones too!!

Buckshots are slippery....


PM Renthals are...Grippery?

Seems to me they are more for show bike than one that are used for riding.
