Has anyone installed these new dresser bars on their America or Speedmaster? I am thinking of ordering a set but I have concerns that there may not be much room between the left bar and the toe shift lever. Thanks in advance for any information. Engine Dresser Bars

Pokey (Kevin Newton) got his just this week. He sent me a PM to that effect. I think he ordered from MADDS and was one of the first to order. I still await notification from them that mine has shipped.
I know one other had them installed on his new bike when he picked it up and he did post pictures.
The Triumph Highway pegs and mounts are supposed to finally be available in June.

I also ordered mine from MADSS a few months ago. I keep bugging them a couple times a month just to make sure they know Im here. I was told they will be shipped this week.

Just got mine last week and installed it on my 07 BA. It looks great and well worth the wait! I'll attach a pic if I can figure out how to do it.

Don, Thanks for the pic of your dresser bars . That's a sweet looking bike too.  I am thinking of ordering mine from MADSS like the rest but, (judging from the other posts) it seems it will take a long while to receive them.

I did get my bars, they look great  . Easy install too! I did order them from MADSS back in March. Worth the wait, still waiting on my pegs. I didn't notice a problem with the shifter in the way and I have footboards too. Kevin

 got mine a few (10-15) minutes ago...got em on...Im liking them. They look good...made for the bike (I know...duh). Not overly obtrusive like some dresser bars Ive seen on other bikes.

Yup they is pretty. Now if Triumph will just get off its blimey keister and get the highway pegs and mounts out.
I am not altogether impressed with the Triumph Supply Chain metric. If they were being measured for accuracy, customer satisfaction for delivery of products they would be getting an "F"
The probably need a Kaizen event or a "lean Manufacturing" event to see how they can speed up things.

They are nice. I was in a hurry for some pegs and adaptors so I hit the Hardley dealer and picked up a variably adjustable mount and kurakyn pegs. I have them mounted high on the dresser bars and with the adaptor fixed at the point to allow the maximum leg extension ...my feet engage the pegs for a perfect full extension of the legs.
