Cruising Pegs?
Cruising Pegs?
When I bought my bike the guy gave me a couple of bolt on footpegs with it. They supposedly attach to the frame in front of the normal ones and flip down for a more relaxed position on longer rides. I think I'm going to try them, even though it's probably not such a hot idea riding with my feet that far from the controls.
Just wondering if anyone else has a similar configuration and if it's worth installing.

The general idea for 'cruising pegs' is to use them when you're on the highway for extended periods of time- Where you won't need to shift, and most braking can be done just be letting off the throttle.
They're not something you're likely to use a whole lot in city traffic.
