Tips for installing highway pegs on black powder coated engine guard
#11
I did the same. Returned the Harley ones and bought Ciro. Little more expensive but they look good and no marks to worry about.

First bike with black powder coated engine guard and I'm very concerned about putting on the highway peg mounts without scratching the guard.
Previous bikes of course had chrome, and I was very careful but the unavoidable little scratches were there, but not really visible until you really get in close, I feel like they will be much easier to see with black.
I'm not concerned about the inevitable scratches underneath the mount which of course you wont see, but the process of getting the height right, I could see where you could easily expose scratches from previous positions.
Interested to hear any tips yall might have. I really dont want to put tape on the engine guard where the mount would be.
Or am I over-thinking this?

Maybe buy some black rubber radiator hose, cut little pieces for each mounting area, slice it and put on bars where the pegs mount.
