Something to check on.... did you measure from the pegs forward to get the correct measurement ???
Got you!!! Each side of the bike are different...depending where you measure from!

Willtill,
They look just like the way I have mine set. They do sit low and will drag when bike is pushed in curves, but in major twistys I prefer to fold them up with feet on mini boards.

Agree. Must be careful. At least they'll (supposedly) give way and kick up; if a major twisty appeared and I get complacent regarding the deployed pegsOriginally Posted by stevenolts
That's what I plan to do as well Rich.There is also an option to leave them fixed in the "Up" position without them depressing to the "down" position. So many ways to play with these things.
I do like adjustability. Because one size really never completely fits all.

The arms of mine are parallel with the engine guards when my feet are off them. Your look as if you have them angled to the ground more. I would think they would be more likely to drag in the corners even with your feet off of them. I never fold up the actual foot rests except when maneuvering in close quarters.

I like my Ergo IIIs but wish they would mount further forward on the engine guard. If they didn't hit on the diagonal brace, the mount could go forward at least a couple more inches. I wonder if there's a way they could mount on the vertical part of the crash bar. I have my arm adjusted all the way inward but would still like more legroom.

Great write up Will! I ended rotating my brackets in towards the motor housing just a tad more so they are on a slight angle so when I put my feet on them, it's not stretching my legs out all of the way if this makes sense. I can take pics when I get home from work to clear it up a bit if need be.

Yes, I think you mean that you turned in the two bottom mounted set screws on each side; that push against that plastic protector tip under each engine head? That'll rotate the entire arm up and inwards as I think you described. I left mine at the neutral setting for the moment.
I just came back from a ride testing the Ergo III's for fit; and I think I need to adjust them more so that my legs are more straighter. I can currently stick my heels up on the top of the Trident peg; which gives me full leg extension... but I feel a little awkward doing that.

I feel the same way. I still have one more (or two possibly) screw hole adjustments that I can collapse the arm on; to give me more stretch of the leg(s). But I'd just rather be able to move the entire assembly forward on the engine crash bar(s)...

I was looking at these pegs and seeing them at the ims show I went with the mic o pegs and I'm so happy I didnt lose any sore of clearance in corners drag my factory foot pegs often and the mic o pegs drop lower when they are being used
