San Antonio, TX | Photos from the side would be nice as well. There is no reason to have a lot of the Vision in the picture. It is hard to tell how far above the floorboard they sit.

Park City, Utah | I put the factory road pegs on when they first came out. A needed thing for my legs to stretch. They are functional but not at all attractive. These new ones are a really sexy add to the bike. Glad that they give the owner a choice now. My own preference is a functional AND beautiful look.
I promise to get the camera out and take some close ups as soon as I can get my bike to the front of my garage. OR I'll call TCP and ask them to shoot some close ups and to answer any questions.
my dreams at night are of riding bikes again soon. TOO much mt snow for that right now. Ride on, All. Rock |

| One thing you can be sure of is that they are quality made from Tri-City. Everything I have seen from them has been top shelf. I remember when they were the first to have a swap deal for chromed wheels. Great dealer too.
Price? Get a quote for material, machining and chroming. |

Park City, Utah | Rebel, I need to get good pictures! NO, they are a solid unit with 2 - 90 degrees bends. The things are TOUGH and attractive. NO exposed nuts and bolts. In fact, FOR SALE CHEAP, Factory road pegs. lol. pm me. I WILL GET good photos ASAP. stay tuned.
My bike has paint work, Chrome this and that, a 21" Ness front rim and these "pegs" are one of the best touches I have seen. but I know, this thread is worthless w/o pictures.  |

Park City, Utah | Here are the pictures of the road pegs. They do not hit the road first... the base of them hits the pavement just like the victory ones and rolls the floor board up, the foot rest section never hits the road. I am not picture posting savoy here. If someone is then, send me an e-mail at dat@xmission.com and I will e-mail them to you to post here. Thanks.

Linwood, MI | Excellent pics, Rocky!! Those look great! I was never terribly impressed with the highway pegs, especially after I rode a Vision with them mounted, but these look really good. Me like. |

Rockford, IL | I'm kinda bleh on these. They sit in pretty much the EXACT same position as stock pegs....don't they?
I do not like the "V" look at all. And not having a rubber base to put a rubber soled boot on doesn't make much sense to me. Aren't these slippery?
About the only benefit I see is that there is a slightly larger area to plant the feet.
For the price I'd much rather go with the standard units from Vic. I really don't see how these units from TPC are worth more to me.
I wish someone would quit thinking only primarily about looks when they design and manufacture something like this. Come up with an adjustable highway peg and I think they will sell like hotcakes. By adjustable I mean put some slots in them so they can be moved up/down and/or back/forth. What might be "perfect" for one might not be for the other. But....an adjustable set would probably be perfect for a lot more people.....if not all.
But this is all MHO though. |

San Antonio, TX | Thanks for the side view. Looks like I could rest my heal on the floor board and instep on the foot peg.
I have the Victory Highway Pegs and do not like the bolt/hinge/peg connection and total length. Most of the time I ride with my heal on the floor board and instep on the foot peg. One time I tapped a highway barrel that had a narrow top and a wide base with the footpeg.
I wish the Victory foot pegs were about 3" shorter in over all length.

I've been looking at the stock highway pegs for a while and been reluctant to purchase due to a lack of adjustability.
These have the same problem and look as if the were designed by the guys who created MAD MAX for 2 wheeled combat.
The photos on the Victory site are not large enough or high enough resolution to determine if the peg mounts could be replaced with something like this offset mount from Kuryakyn?
Anyone who has a set of stock highway pegs care to let us know.

Park City, Utah | installed mine last night along w/my NESS chrome floor boards. I am going to play with some adheisive rubber products too and will post what I end up with. Great heel rest. perfect for toe out/heel on boards position. 110% well built product. seem to be a lot more narrow than the way the factory ones stuck way out. thrilled with the finished product now.Thanks for the effort TCP. stock peg for sale cheap. |

Richmond, Virginia | I wonder if these things create a "whistle" effect at highway speed with no boot covering the V cut out.... wonder if anyone has thought about that or experienced it. Cool looking.... |

Park City, Utah | I doubt they whistle. These were developed and tested by TCP with prototypes prior to production. If they whistle they are silent like deer whistles. benefit! lol. The wind deflectors are quiet in every position so I doubt these make any noise. |
