  • Any of youuse forward controls or foot rest?

    I was thinking about forward foot pegs (or controls) but when I hopped on my bike, I'm realizing that I will end up melting my ankles to the bone if I attempted this.

    They sell kits for the XS but how the heck do you run these with our engines being so wide??

    You mount them on a two point case guard. As an option you tie a peg mount to the engine mount. I may have something like that in a box someplace.....maybe.

        I always wear boots. The heat doesn't penetrate them. My feet are usually on the pegs, where they are getting plenty of hot air off the engine. Slipping my feet out front gets them into the cool air and get my knees a break.
