    I agree and why all my Kuryakyn parts(I don't use many) are either powder coated or painted before I even put them on. I think it is a toss up as to who has the worst chrome between Kuryakyn or Cobra imo.
    Oh and the ergo lll in black are the bomb for me and my 36" inseam.

    If you have a long inseam, Roadsmith makes a foot control relocation kit you might want to take a look at. It moves the pegs and foot controls forward 3" and down 1".

    Congrats and enjoy your new scoot.

    Welcome aboard! I use the Rivco pegs - they're invisible. I had Mic O'Pegs on my GW. They worked OK but were really clunky.

    Is anyone running those Roadsmith parts? It seems to me that 1" lower and the pegs would scrape pretty easy.

    I am not running the Roadsmith parts, but many of us are using the Kuryakyn mini-drop boards which are 3/4" lower.

    Doing a quick search, both Navvet and adventurous1 have the Roadsmith comfort controls. There maybe others who have them as well.

    If they don't chime in, maybe send them a PM.

    Love the Roadsmith's. Between them and ERGO II's this is the most comfortable bike I have ever had.

    I am shrinking now with age but still 6'-6" with a 36"+ inseam. I use a stock seat with an AirHawk and the peg mods and can go all day long.

    Thanks

    Thanks to everyone
    for all the feedback. Lots of info. I wasn't aware of some of these items, such as dropped floorboards. I delayed buying a B because due to my inseam (34") I was concerned about knee problems. But I am deliriously happy! Saturday, my first day with the scoot, I did 180 miles, most of it flying. I was impressed.
    I am leaning for the Ergo 3 in black; Ultimate King seat. Need to look at those floorboards - Kuryaken and Roadsmith.

    Over time, I plan on pegs, seat, driving lights, possibly floorboards and Heli bars. We are planning a 4000 mile ride this summer, through western US.
