I am 5'10 and my stock controls on my bike always made me feel cramped. If your looking to get away from that cramped feeling on your bike, this is an awesome way to go if your to stretch your legs out. It defiantly gave me more room to stretch my legs and the first thing I noticed when I test drove it was the ease of the controls (shifting-breaking) over the stock controls...Love it, what an all around improvement over stock. Downside $$Expensive$$

LIke nmost of the gear I bought nfrom cruiser Customizing, the quality and workman ship excellent, looks good on the bike. pushes forward 3 or so inches. Both the foot brake and the gear lever could have been made with a slight bend outwards at the end of the foot pegs as you have to bend your foot in to get to both pedals, not very good for braking and uncomfortable. needs a longer peg for the brake to make it comfortable to use. I had a problem with the gear lever as having put a new chrome cover on the bike the lever rubs up against the cover,therefore had to modify the arm from the spline to the lever. Apart from that its a nice piece of Chrome.

Chrome and steel are high quality. Very heavy/sturdy construction. You will NEED to verify which exhaust pipes they will work with though. And be very sure, I called customer service when ordering the Jardine Slashcuts (17-1907-01) to verify fitment and they said it was good - they lied. Had to modify the mount slightly to get them to work.

Very easy to install. Short legged people may want to consider carfully, i'm 6 foot and find them perfect. Looks and quality are excellent.

Pricey, but a must have if comfort is a high priority. At 6'1", the added 3-4" forward does the job. A good solid product. Installation is simple if you leave the mounting bolts out about a half inch until all connections and peg adjustments are made. Comfort and chrome in one product.

there really work well allow one to really stretch out and relax on the bike while. the install can be a bit tricky tring to get the shifter in the right postion. will not work if u have pipes that interfer with the controllers. had to have a spacer made for the right side to allow the right side to clear the exhaust. the corbra pipes have this problem the vance and hines did not have this problem they mount up like they are suppose to. but they are great product and the vendor was a good help.

Very nice wouldn't be the same ride without them. Extends my legs just the right distance. Three inches forward and 1.5" downward. One of my best investments.

Another gift from Santa, but was told he got them at a dealer close-out sale for $375. Couldn't live without them now that I have them!

I really like them, I did not get the mini-boards but I was told that they are discontinued They reduce leg fatigue on the long rides I will try to get the mini-boards that way I have some choice in leg position.

I am 6' 1" and was feeling cramped. I found a used set of forward controls with mini floor boards and love them. The fit and finish is very good. They give me many positions for my feet. The only down side is you must not have an engine / hiway guard. I am researching this I miss the added safty. They are very expensive new but I probably would buy them new, comfort is very important to me.
