Probably going to get the IMT version, unless I break down and just get the Jaybrake forward controls I've been wanting for a while. Never been anywhere near impressed with Kury's quality on anything.

I did the same thing. I like the flip blades as an alternative place to put my feet out but wanted a set of hiway pegs as well. We're planning on going to Sturgis this summer so I bought the harley set up instead of the Kuryakyn. The HD ones were actually cheaper once I got the 20% off and I thought they looked nicer.

I have the flip blades on my Ultra and really like them. They lock when flipped out and are very comfortable. They do drag as they are so low but they rotate up very easy so I just pull them up when in slow tight turn mode. I can't reach the lock when in the saddle so they stay out all the time. I do like them!

Do they ever get in the way when you are stopping and go to set your feet down?
