Ok...so I bought a used set off of a member a few months ago. He said he didn't have the instructions anymore, which I figured wouldn't be any big deal since I'm decently mechanically able.

So, I finally got around to the install last week, and things weren't looking quite right. I can very easily see where the mounts are and line the peg mount brackets up, but due to the way the frame is assembled, they won't just bolt on. I've approached this during different stages of sobriety, with results the same.

I figure I'm just missing something simple, so is there anyone out there with instructions that could help a brother out?

Or you could PM Dwight since it's his design.

I had exactly the same experience with the installation. i emailed boogie who offered to have a look at them if i sent them back but i eventually sold them to lonzo wo made them work for him. see below my conclusion is that the kit doesn't allow for enough variation in the bike so people will have varied success. i'm sure either boogie or lonzo could provide the instruction sheet.

Installed mid-pegs Saturday, they work great! The kit does leave a little to be desired, but I made it work. The right extension sits firmly on right heat shield, but I'm getting a set of Epco's, I don't think they have a shield on them. Also, they could have rounded some corners off to clear brake switch wires and brake line, but I was able to bend the bracket and brake line to make it fit. Our seats are really a little low for mid-pegs (I have a 34" inseam), but I'm having a spare seat re-done to make it about an inch taller. Did about 250 miles over the weekend, really helped my bad back.
Thanks,
Lon
