+ | ====== Running Forward Controls and Mid pegs ====== | ||
+ | Article by MotoRacerGabe of the XLFORUM ((https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/efi-sportster-motorcycle-talk-2007-and-up/146247-forward-controls-and-mid-pegs?t=1587864)) \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The bike below (2012 XL1200V) came with forward controls and mid pegs were added for more foot positions. \\ | ||
+ | The mid pegs add more leverage when at higher speeds and in cornering. \\ | ||
+ | It also adds for a greater amount of foot positions (from riding on the toes on the mid pegs or having your heels on the forwards. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Normally, it wouldn't be possible to add mid pegs with forward controls due to the brake linkage for the forward controls. \\ | ||
+ | The left side mid peg bolted right up. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:techtalk:ref:body:mids_and_forwards_1_by_motoracergabe.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by MotoRacerGabe of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/efi-sportster-motorcycle-talk-2007-and-up/146247-forward-controls-and-mid-pegs?t=1587864)) {{:techtalk:ref:body:mids_and_forwards_2_by_motoracergabe.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by MotoRacerGabe of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/efi-sportster-motorcycle-talk-2007-and-up/146247-forward-controls-and-mid-pegs?t=1587864)) \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The right side wasn't really that hard to make work. \\ | ||
+ | All you have to do is put a space between the mid-mount and where it screws into the frame. \\ | ||
+ | You'll have to measure how much space is needed. \\ | ||
+ | In the pic below, two matching nuts were used as spacers. \\ | ||
+ | However, the distance was still a tad too short to clear the brake linkage completely. \\ | ||
+ | So the linkage was hitting the mount. Then, two thick washers were added to them to give the mount some more space. \\ | ||
+ | You can see in the first pic below where the linkage was rubbing against the mount and took off the black paint. \\ | ||
+ | With an additional washer it didn't not touch. \\ | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====== Crash Bar Pegs ====== | ||
+ | This Engine Guard Peg Mounting Kit (50964-98) was purchased from the dealership for installing pegs on crash bars (engine guard). \\ | ||
+ | Three piece design with tiny Allen head screws. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:techtalk:ref:body:highway_bar_pegs_1_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) {{:techtalk:ref:body:highway_bar_pegs_2_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | You have to install the center piece onto 1 long piece, slide that onto the bar and then install the second long piece. \\ | ||
+ | It will still be loose until you mount the peg clevis to it. This pulls both ends together and tightens around the bar. \\ | ||
+ | It can be mounted as shown or swung forward for a longer reach. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:techtalk:ref:body:highway_bar_pegs_3_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) | ||

+ | ====== Aftermarket Heel Rest ====== | ||
+ | These were purchased off Ebay but should be pretty simple to put together or make from scratch. \\ | ||

+ | {{:techtalk:ref:body:aftermarket_heel_rest_2_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) {{:techtalk:ref:body:aftermarket_heel_rest_4_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | These clevis' came from the highway bar kit above and have internal 1/2" (fine) threads. You may need to buy a couple 1/2"x20 bolts to cut to size. \\ | ||
+ | Install the peg on the clevis as normal and run a 3/8" bolt thru the clevis into the heel rest bracket. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:techtalk:ref:body:aftermarket_heel_rest_5_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) {{:techtalk:ref:body:aftermarket_heel_rest_6_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) {{:techtalk:ref:body:aftermarket_heel_rest_7_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}} ((photo by Hippysmack)) \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Then just snug all the bolts, position the assembly where you want it and tighten the bolts. \\ | ||
+ | The brackets are very solid when done and the heel rest works good on long rides. \\ | ||
+ | |||
