I'm looking at purchasing a set of the Cruiser-Peg kits that Palmer offers.

Any opinions on the company or product?

Thanks!

Company is awesome, products are spot on, period. I have not seen or use the highway pegs, but I am going to when I get back from this tour, and have no reservations of said product.

I use the 2 different versions of the windscreen brackets, and love them!!

Palmer is great to deal with. The forward pegs are a must have if you travel at all. Here is a picture of them on my ride.

I can't use that foothold because it rounds my low back out like a cruiser and it gets tight fast (discs pinch the wrong way). Why I ride an upright, not a cruiser. Legs too long.

But I use their windshield bracket and such. Good quality!

Palmers are great, especially with my backrest and Rox risers.

Unless they redesigned the brackets, I don’t think it will work with the comfort kit scoop installed. Anyone try this yet?

I want some sort of alternative foot pegs also.

I installed the bracket but had to modify the top-front of the comfort kit air scoop.

I put them on my 09 Uly and had to get rid of the one piece aftermarket RSS I was using. I tried to make the new Comfort Kit RSS work with the Palmers but would have had to cut the CK-RSS. I didn't want to do this until I was sure I was going to keep the Palmers on. Good thing as I opted to remove the Palmers after a week as I couldn't reach them. I ended up using only the outer CK-RSS and securing the scoop with a bolt in the rear and a zip tie up front. Sorry no pics but even if I took some I couldn't post them anyway because I'm a computer retard.

Long rides, luv em. I found useing the passanger pegs for leg stretch not very good. Had one weld break, rewelded $20 no problem. Palmer turnsout good products. Pics but to tired tonight, just got back from three day trip. I have right side scoop from some fellow in europe, needed to cut hole in scoop.

I did Palmers w/ comfort kit. I removed the palmer spacer on the RH side under the scoop & Dremeled a slot for the down-rod. I know, you want pictures!

Anyone know if these will work with an XB12STT? Seems like they should.

Can someone please post a pic of the cruiser pegs installed with the RSS? I am considering purchasing a this item and want to physically see the modification required.

Thanks
