highway pegs

[mongoose]

Ok..after some work I finally got my Kuryakyn swich blade foot pegs and highway pegs on my 04 areo, what I need to know is this. Do you put the pegs on the engine guard just where you think they feel the best to your legs, I am 5' 11" but my legs are short, I have them up on the bar about half way, and my legs are bent up higher with my knees against the tank, do I need to adjust them so my legs are straight or is it just where I think its comfertable?

I would imagine that you would put them where it is most comfortable without falling asleep.
Post some pics, I have an 04 aero and am always looking for ideas!

I think I am going to play with them a bit today to see where I like them the best, now that its daylight and I can see whats going on better, I will post pics when I get a digital camera, I still havent bought one...damm I do need to do that though.

ok, I got them where I want them about the mid position for longhorn arms, but now my biggest problem is I changed my foot pegs also and I cant seem to get the peg tight enough in the adapter, my foot keeps twisting the peg down, I have tried to tigheten it up as much as possable, even took a cresent wrench to the allen and used it as a bar, but it still breaks loose.
anybody have a idea?

I had the same issue (actually, with the Switchblades also). I found that loc-tite helped quite a bit, but the angle that your foot rests on the peg played a big part also.

I ended up rolling the peg down a little, loc-tite, and the crescent method that you mentioned. Haven't had them slip since...

Good luck!
