| I see a lot of people putting highway pegs on their vision. Can you tell me if thats a personal preference or do the boards not have enough tilt in them to make your foot and ankle area comfortable for long stretches.
Thanks

| I just got a pair of the Victory pegs and I love them! I am 5'10" and they fit me perfect! If your taller I would go with the set up from Arizona Victory, they mount to the front tip overs. I put a message out to this forum and the VMC and had several responses. Ended up with a like new pair for 90.00 shipped. Good Luck Darren |

Orlando, FL | Same reason almost every bike owner of any brand puts hiway pegs on thier ride....... to have another place to stretch out on long rides. I have JB Hatch Pegs and love them!

Regina Saskatchewan Canada | I also got the JB Hatch pegs that mount on the front tip over. They allow you to stretch out on long trips giving yet another option for feet positions. Great product, worth the money. |

We have them on one of our Visions. Fantastic product!
In addition to comfort, they are known to have killed kamikaze deer. |

Tucson, AZ | Ditto the above replies, and in the summer it allows you to get your feet out of the heat of the motor |

W'ford Tx | Here's the best advice I can give you. If you're under 6ft I would highly suggest the victory branded highway pegs. If you're 6ft plus or just crazy long legged I'd suggest the pegs from JB hatch. They both fold up out of the way and provide plenty of options. |

In answer to you question, It must be personal preference, as not all riders have added them. I've taken a couple two week, 5,000 mile trips and the floorboards work fine for me. |

| I have the victory highway pegs and use them!
For me its another place to put my legs and stretch out on the long rides...
Most of the time I just rest my foot on the beg frame it's self. On hot days its nice to hang my legs in the wind. |

| Would like to get the JB Hatch highway pegs. I have sent a PM and an email with no response. Maybe he doesn't make them anymore? If anyone decides to sell theirs, let me know. |

Salt Lake City | I have the Arizona mounts with Kury Iso pegs. They are a must for my 6-9 frame. I almost never put my feet on the floorboards. |

Moravia, IA | Ive also got the Victory pegs.....6ft4in and love them.
I can put my heel on the board.....and my toes on the peg, like in a V pattern.....super comfortable. If I really want to stretch out I can hang my heels on them and straight leg it for awhile.
Ive done as much as 38 hours straight on my Vision.......still using the stock seat and the highway pegs. |

Orlando, FL | Oakwood, Maybe JB's on vacation?? After all it's just a side business for him. He is generous enough to share his skills with us and makes a really great product for a very reasonable price.

Cottage Grove, Mn | I'm 5'10" and the only reason I use the foot pegs is to rest my feet while I let the wind blow up my jean legs. Very refreshing and it goes all the way up and cools the boys besides. |

I finally stuck a crow bar in my wallet and ordered a set of these for our 2009 Vision. They're great on our 2008. |

Troy, NY | I have Victory's peg and like them. I really only use the brackets to prop my feet up. I rarely put my feet on the peg part. I just test road a 2012 that didn't have the highway pegs on them. I didn't miss them. So if I would do it all over again, I would use the $$$$s I paid for the pegs to get more of LLoyds stuff!

I believe Justin is on an extended riding vacation with his elderly Dad. Give him a little time to answer.
