Does any one have a close up picture of this setup ? Thanks........................

I am not as tall but I am still 6'1". I have just a clamp and peg but I also have the heel rest on the peg. That way I can put my heel on my floorboard and toe on the heel rest or I can put my foot on the peg and use the heel rest. It offers a few different positions.I have a bad back and it helps to be able to move around and adjust my position a little.

Same set up. 6'2" ,basic clamps. Lots of options for your legs. I would rather have less stuff hanging off your bars.

I'm 6'4 and just installed a set from Harley that are a little above the lower bend in the crash bar. I am able to rest my toe there and my heel on the floorboard and it is very comfortable. Don't want my feet too high so thats why I put them there.

6'6" and I am putting the 360 clamps on mine. They are going to be setup just in front if the crash bar. I have a 37" inseam tho so I can use the extra room.

I agree Python357, gives u multiple leg positions. Just mounting them up high on the highway bars only gives u one.

Exactly what I have as well. Must be a popular install choice.

As for appearance, I think they look great, especially as comfortable as They are. At 6'6" I need 'em!
