Thanks! Where do you buy this kit?

Yup, your pegs are way close, they are stock or retracted pegs.

Check for someone like this and do a swap: http://www.bigdogbiker.com/forums/swap-meet/64483-trade-2-5-bd-oem-foot-control-extensions-stock-oem.html, even though, you are taller than me (I installed the 3" extensions), I think you will need at least 4" extensions?

The oil pressure gauge, you can buy it from Curtis Wild Steed Worx & Services, When the road is your trail or do a search on Google and you will find dozens of pages.

I have the 3" kit that I never installed, chrome and brake line extension. I was going to install it but since I use the Tribal Forward controls the clock is out far enough for me and I am 6' 3". I paid $210 plus shipping $7.00 and I'll sell if for the same amount. Still new never installed if your interested let me know.

Arlen Ness has them also.

Not to counterdick Franco, but I'm gonna anyways:lol: If you get forward controls to move the pegs out further, you comfort position while riding will be better, but the downside to that is while moving the pegs out further it makes the burn factor worse:angry: Your leg is reaching out further and it moves your thigh closer to the head

Franco don't burn his leg cause as you can see he rides without a seat, he's a hard ass:roll:

No seat. You had to know that was coming.

Burning thigh

Hi all, picked up my 07 K9 yesterday and did a nice 200 mile ride to get to know her better. The only problem is I kept burning the inside of my right thigh on the corner of the head. To be honest I'm a bigger guy 6'2" and 350 and yes I know loosing weight would help! But I'm wondering if anyone else has had the issue and what tricks or fixes you used??

Thanks, Brandon

I've had that issue -- I'm 6ft, 290lbs, I've got 2.5 extended controls and 1" extended (out) clevises.

My solution was to take a thick piece of leather and bend it 90 degrees. cut it to size and cut a hole in it that goes over the seat hook before putting the seat on and then it bends down and protects my thigh from the annoyance.

Will take pics when I find it(just moved and everything is in disarray.)
