Well, just got done installing my pegs that came in today. Have to say, I'm impressed with them... Wish I had about a 1/2" longer inseam but, I know how to situation myself well enough to make them feel just right, and even bend my legs a little bit.

Went on a 70 mile ride to test them out and make sure they were situated right (you can adjust the angle) and also, to make sure that I liked them. At first, I was a little nervous about them, just like anything new though I put on my bike, but once I relaxed I figured out these were the bomb. Also, you can fold them up for short little rides and they become wider, almost like some of the stirrup pegs that I've seen, they support the back of the foot.

Took < 30 minutes to install and was definitely worth it! Now, these are going to be for somebody that has a 32" inseam or higher and they work great, I am 5-11" and know how to lean back and stretch my legs! Here are Kury's SwingWing Pegs installed. Total cost of pegs and shipping (free) was $164.42 USD (ridersdiscount.com, hey look... and actual sponsor for once!).

Sweet . You will love the extra support
I bet they are comfortable on long rides.
Yea, they are just like highway bars and don't take away from the look of the bike!... freaking outstanding... I got totally comfortable on them once my nervousness went away... Was great! :D

Red,

I've been looking at these for months. Are they really that awesome? Do the folding parts move at all when riding? By adjustable, you mean the ratchet nuts that control the angle? How stretched are you when using these? Im about 2 inches taller then you and have a 34 inseam, I know my knees won't be locked but I want some extra relax in my ride.

Sorry bout all the questions. Like I said, I've been looking at these for months and you are the first person I found that actually has them.

Red,

Glad you like them Dave and Trukka, may have more pic of me on the bike later today...

They are really awesome Trukka, the moving parts don't move while riding and they actually have some weight to them. When I first picked up the package with them in it, I was like damn... these are solid steel...

The splinned nuts that you use for the installation, the one's that take the place of the stock mounting assembly, they have grooves in them so you can adjust them around 360 degree's until you find the right angle for you!

The moving parts on this, specially the swingwing, stays in place and does not move during your riding session, if you want them folded up for short rides, you must manually move them either at stop lights or before your ride...

By stretched I mean stretched... it moves your feet out, so logically, that takes up space, by moving out 3 inches and moving up by about 3 inches, this thing definitely is stretched... I have to slouch in my seat to make it work appropriately for me, but I always do that anyways, so that is why it works for me.

This begs for an action picture, show us how streched it looks.
What about your ground clearance in corners, no problems with tight corners?
I will take some pics here soon... Mmmm, about corners, I got used to not scraping anymore with my stock pegs, so I haven't yet scraped with these... I did rub my heal though on a corner when I was on the highway peg part of the pegs... but it was only a slight rub, which made me slow down... I have a tendency to go fast in corners, so this helped... :eek:

Thanks Red,

Just need to save up a couple of bucks and the purchase will be made.

This will be done based on your personal recommendation, so I will be holding you responsible if I don't like them. ;)

Oh, and your bike looks pretty, congrats on FOM: March!

You should change your name to SilverSurfer and start riding in your 'flops'. :D

Good pics. Looks like they really straighten the leg out. Might need to go to these until I can afford the extended FCs.

lol....The first thing I noticed was your facial expressions. I was thinking, "WTF....???....is the sun in his eyes, or his he just posing for the pics?" :D Yeah, I saw those pegs on the Kury site and thought they would be pretty cool. Glad you enjoy them. :cool:
