wow, thats an open ended question. you have lots of choices. i'm short, so i like the long angled, set so that i can use the highway pegs as a toe rest, with my heel on the floorboards. my legs are really too short to use the highway pegs alone.

those are the hd long angled. $109 msrp, but you can definitely get them cheaper from one of the online sellers. be aware, they do not come with footpegs, you get to supply your own. i don't run a passenger, so i just used the passenger pegs instead of buying another set.

Highway pegs bare are a must for comfort. Any choice is a good choice.

What is the difference between the HD long angled and short angled mounting kits? I cannot detect any difference in the description or the pictures. Which one is best for the Ultra?

the only difference is the length of the mount arm. otherwise they are pretty much the same.

as far as 'best'? that would be up to you. i'm 5'4'', i think the best is the long angled, chunker is 5'7'' and he prefers the short.....

what i would do is go to your hd dealer, grab a set of each and mock set them up on either your bike, or a bike on the floor and see which ones will be best for you.
