Carb needs a rebuild this week, too. Found her in a puddle of 91 octane this morn.

IMO the Dunlop American Elite is a lot better than the D402 and is available in a WWW.

I will not dispute that at all, but for some reason after a short time the white doesn't stay as bright as the 402 series. Just what I've seen over the past couple years

Took off the cool looking but uncomfortable chrome footpegs and put on some ISO pegs with the heal rest. Big difference.

They look great, how does it look at underneath that brake pedal, I love to see that because my pedal cover is not that good looking at the underside.

Can you post a picture ?

Default Pegs for long distance

My Son-in-Law went from an R-1 to a 2016 72 Sportster so he went from rear sets to forward controls! Talk about a shock to the system! But he's handling it very well!
BillyW, I also have replaced Chrome foot pegs (which I bought aftermarket) for standard black rubber pegs after my last long distance ride as my boots kept slipping off the chrome ones. Bugger looks I want comfort and safety!
