Highway Pegs for a 2010 RT

[Lawrence_D]

I'm considering highway pegs for my 2010 RT. Knees need a little extension on the long trips! Any suggestions?

Considering Ilium Works Pegs

Thanks!

I had the Illums on my RT. They do provide a place to put your feet when you need to change position, but I wasn't comfortable keeping them there as I would on a cruiser.

When I do mine I want to do the ztechnik engine guards with the ilium pegs mounted on them.

A couple of guys have gone that route on the forum and it looks really good!

I'll see if I can find there posts

I have a set of Eagle Talons on my 06. I bought them new to ride a BBG1500, and they performed wonderfully. Easy to install.
I used the passenger footpegs since I don't have passengers all that often.
BTW, I'm 6'4.

I'd sure be interested to see that. I really like the ztechnik engine guards, but I WOULD like to see how the ilium pegs mount, if you can mount them on the down tube, and what people think about them

Thanks,

Here's MachineArtMoto guards with Ilium highway pegs.

Not a very good picture of the guard, but I was interested in the pegs.
The pegs made a huge difference on some long rides.

I have a set of the Illuim Brackets and Highway Pegs on my 2011 R12RT.

I just rode ~3000 miles over a 4-day span. The last day was about 1000 miles and nearly 19-hours in the (stock) saddle; it would not have been nearly as enjoyable without these pegs to change position occasionally. During this trip we rode about 1000 miles of twisty's in W-NC and TN, no issues with dragging although they were not deployed in the tight stuff....

I did paint the brackets a satin black so they blend in much better on my bike with its black trim then the original silver.

I've considered getting highway pegs before - specifically the Hawk Talons that relocate the passenger footpegs onto the cylinder heads - but always felt like the fairing would either rub against the inside of my legs or be spread so wide that it wouldn't be comfortable. Anyone had either of these problems with any of the highway pegs or is it completely different with them actually installed?

Are these the ones you have? Ilium Works

I just use these Hawk Talons for streatching on longer riders. I have been using them for 5 years now with no problems. I no longer have lights on them. I never liked how they looked there.

Hey Stig, Wanna come try my bike on for size? Illium pegs on an '11 RT. PM me.

Here is an older photo, 2007 with the pegs on top and with the lights.

this is the setup I want. Can you post a couple of better shots?

@ Atomicman52...I will see about getting a couple of more posted this evening.

I have had the Illium pegs on my 08RT for several years now. Any highway peg is not perfect on the RT because you have to spread your legs too far apart. They are very well built and quality shows.

If they would lock out someway I would like them better so I could rest my heals on them and stretch my legs out straight. Definately not as comfortable as the Harley pegs and riding position.

I also have Illium footboards and they allow some movement to change positions. The pegs are adjustable forward and back several inches to allow a more comfortable position.

Great company to deal with and customer service is terrific.

I have the Ilium pegs on my RT and would recommend them.
