Motorcycle & Scooter Footrests, Foot Pegs & Pedal Pads for Harley-Davidson V-Rod

Foot Pegs and Pedal Pads for Harley-Davidson V-Rod

Accessories such as foot pegs and pedal pads are engineered to add comfort and efficiency to motorcycle riding. There are various things to consider such as size, shape, and installation location, as well as the ease of the installation. Youll want to install each accessory carefully to ensure safety while riding.

Harley-Davidson and other brands produce pegs that fit on a variety of different bikes, including the V-Rod. Along with whether the mount is black or chrome, there are other options you can choose from, including:

• The size of the foot pegs
• The shape that matches the style of your motorcycle
• Where it can be installed above the softail floorboards
• If an extension on the mount is needed for shorter riders

Many peg kits for motorcycles can be installed in a few different positions, depending on how you want to ride. A mid-control peg kit, for example, will give you a more aggressive riding stance than if you were to place the foot pegs in a more traditional riding position. Mounting your pegs in the place that works for you will provide you with the optimal riding position for short rides, long trips, and different road conditions.

Making sure that the add-ons you install on your Harley-Davidson are installed properly is important not only to your level of comfort, but also to the safety of your motorcycle. To begin with, you will need to know if the pegs you have come with the clamps to install them. Then, do as follows:

• Determine the mounting point on your motorcycle above the floorboards. The position you choose should be comfortable while still providing access to your brake and shift levers.
• Position the clamp onto the engine guard, then attach the pegs onto them. Keep the bolts and screws somewhat loose so that you can readjust the position as needed.
• Sit on your motorcycle to check if the positioning is correct. If it doesnt feel right, adjust the clamps.
• Once you have the foot pegs in the correct position, tighten all the bolts and screws securely to your Harley-Davidson.

There are numerous styles available; most come in black or chrome or a variety of the two. Some are cylindrical while some are flat. Others are plain, while some have designs such as flames. While many designs are available, what matters is that you are comfortable while riding your motorcycle once the foot pegs are installed.
