They look better than the faux toolboxes.

I like the new sprocket cover. It looks like the T100 one just extended. I still like my T100 one better tho

As for the peg hangers, I do think they look better than the original, and in black they blend. At least they are still removable!!

I am liking the wheels!

I hate the hangers, then again I hate the old ones too.

I wonder what that wheel kit cost, they look pretty sharp.

Y'all do realize that the peg hangers are essentially the same as the old ones with the centers cut out, right? Yes, the difference is a bit more complicated than that but that's the gist of it. I've thought about trying something like that on the old hangers.

Hate em.

I like the ones Brent has but a little hard to justify on price.

I think the new pegs look nice enough, but they still have the same problem as the old ones do, with regards to their location of the actual peg mount. Uncomfy for a pillion (from what I've heard) and useless to the rider as having a mid-mount peg option.

My pillion actually prefers the stock location for the pegs. I had them screwed into the lower shock mount, but she asked for them moved back. Says having her feet directly under her allows for more control and support for her tush. I think maybe dropping them down a couple inches could be in order in the future tho...

Yeah but that is probably the ONE thing everyone agreed had to get changed.

Yeah that's what I am thinking. Is that a Kuryakyn part number for that bracket? Or something custom?

One thing is for certain - they are DEFINATELY better looking than their predecessors.....

I'm still holding out on what to bolt onto the empty space left by the stock peg hangers.....

Brent's stuff is cool, but tough to justify for the occasional pillion, especially when he's talking about a new oil pressure gauge and hard bags coming.... I CAN'T AFFORD TO LOOK AT THIS FORUM ANYMORE! There should be a warning......."FINANCIAL ADVISORS WARNING - THIS WEB SITE MAY BE HAZORDOUS TO YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION"
