Richmond, Virginia | Now if AngelsCharlie would just stop embarassing all of us as well as himself and get that darn orange cone color matched to his bike.
WHAT IS THE GUY THINKING !!!
btw, all of you egg him on to buy the chrome driver footboards to complete the look. then his bike will look as cool as mine..... minus
that cone of course.... |

Richmond, Virginia | CAUTION ( i was a tad late telling Charlie) ..sorry Charlie, but for any of you who buy these chrome V pegs, the kit will come with
a clear plastic adhesive pre cut piece of protective plastic that protects the peg. DONT PUT IT ON. In order for you to remove the piece from the paper backing your hands will leave big time finger prints in the adhesive which of course isnt removeable and once you
put the plastic cover piece over the chrome, all you will see are your fingerprints and not a clear shiney piece of chrome. toss those suckers away and use some regular chrome polish when needed and your pegs will look fine. now for Charlie, go rip them suckers off your bike boy ! |

Altoona, Wisconsin | I've had the "V" Pegs on my bike for a couple weeks now. They look great and I find them very comfortable (6 foot tall, 32in inseam). They're a better match for the looks of the Vision than the standard Victory highway pegs, IMO. Excellent quality, too. |

Richmond, Virginia | The others look like chrome hot dogs on a weenie stick on a Vision, better suited for a "lessor" bike how snotty did THAT sound. So i guess AngelChaz is now down wit his ride on da fly wit no PROteksion on. So lets tap dat booger of a cone into the
dumpster and get cho azz one dat fits yo ride. |

Tucker, Ga. | I'd be mo then happy to accept some Victory Cones as a gift! Those cones are nailed to the pavement with 8" spikes to save my spot! They're not really cosmetic but some red & black ones would be sweet! While yo at it take up donations for my chrome floor boards!

| I'm not real keen on those pegs, I believe I mentioned that when they were first posted. But I guess that's why they offer a variety of accessories for bikes, not everyone is on the same page. Glad you are happy with them.... T |

VA | VA, question. They look really nice, but when you stretch out, can you put your ankles over them? I liked that about my old forward control pegs. I would stretch out and put my ankles over the pegs. These look like they might cut the circulation off if I did that. Also, since they are chrome with no rubber grippers, do your feet feel like they want to slide off? Just curious. I've been eyeing the Victory highway pegs, but these do look nicer. |

Tucker, Ga. | If you look at the top edge of them they are shaped perfectly for your ankles. Now, I don't know how it would feel in shorts with bare skin but seeing that it gets a little (wink, wink) too hot for shorts it should do fine with jeans on or boots like some hi-techs or something. Your ankles will fit in that notch very nicely though. I love em, so far I just like putting my heal on the edge of the floorboards & the balls of my feet up on the v pegs. & no, in my opinion your feet don't slip or slide around all though the makers told me they are toying with making a rubber V that could, if a rider wanted, fit into that open V. I can say now that I think they are perfect the way they are. |

Pitt Meadows, BC Canada | I have the factory pegs - and they are just too far forward for a short shit like me.
The photos show the pegs even FURTHER forward - are you guys GIANTS or something?
Can these things be mounted about half way up the floorboards instead of ALL THE WAY UP????? |

Tucker, Ga. | No, I don't think we're giants. These things don't seem to be mounted nearly as far forward as I've seen on other bikes with normal pegs. I think if you look at some of the pics I posted up above & pay close attention to where the V sits in relation to the shifter or brake you'll see they're not that far forward. Plus they sit at least 3" above the floorboards which will help you smurfs out even more. I think you'll be ecstatic over how good they look & feel. If you can reach the shifter then you'll be more than able to reach the V Pegs!
I just realized that I'm no longer a bar hopper, I'm a cruiser! I'm so excited!

Pitt Meadows, BC Canada | Reach the shifter? When I took delivery - the shifter was adjusted to the most foreward position - damn near castrated myself getting the bike home - where I quickly moved the shifter and brake back to where I could use them.
First instructions to my Dealer:" Do NOT deliver this bike EVER without adjusting the brake and shifter to the new owner's body".
I can just reach the highway pegs - if I lean way back and slide my bum up to the front edge of the seat. NOT comfortable - and they are NOT adjustable. So it would be nice to find some that fit me. I am 5'8" and 65 years old. So I have stopped growing and am unlikely to be as fit as a young 50 year old. |

Tucker, Ga. | Well I would not consider 5'8" short so I still believe they will work for you. I would also recommend the utopia backrest which in conjunction with the V pegs is really sweet! http://www.utpr.com/vision.html by the way the bottom pic on the home page is my 10th minus the V Pegs! Unfortunately I don't think dealers are carrying these V Pegs so it's hard to see without buying 1st. Call them & they may be willing to give a refund if they just don't work for you. But I believe they will!
Here is link for V Pegs: http://www.tricityperformance.net/eshopprod_cat_2332-18091-18097-59...
And here is the # for the V Pegs. Ask for Jeff
(801)298-8081
I was just thinking, I don't think they are adjustable, there are 3 holes on each V Peg. But if they are too far forward you may be able to remove the bolts, slide them back a ways & mark the position of the holes in the bottom of the floorboard & have someone drill & tap some new holes. Just a thought.
(of coarse I'd bet the farm the factory settings will work, I mean it's not like your 5'2" ) You may even be able to ask Jeff to drill all the holes a certain distance further back. It's worth asking.
