Its hard to tell from the pics, But I am wondering which peg with hit the ground first in a tight turn. I can very easily drag my factory pegs. Those highway pegs look llike they will find the pavement pretty quickly. Just wondering if anyone has checked this yet?

yea me too
I would think as along as they swing up easily there shouldn't be a problem.
My Hyway pegs are kinda cheap and even the wind will blow them up so grinding the pavement hasn't occured.
I do like the rubber on these pegs to help grip the sole.

They will both hit the ground but the foot pegs will hit first at least in my set up

PM member "keithaba" and ask him what he thinks about the wild bill highway pegs. Look at at what he posted about 2 or 3 weeks back concerning highway pegs and cornering.

That's no lie. I'm surprised he (or someone) hasn't mentioned this sooner. I'm not sure, but it looks like these pegs are mounted even lower than Keith's were, so, be careful, man. I don't routinely drag pegs, but I would be very leery of going low on turns with these things on board- folded up or not.

the 05's WB's must be higher or at a better angle because I just finished the Dragon last weekend and both foot pegs recieved a punishing and I never had the WildBills to give a wimper.

looks like you had a great time. Been a few years since i was up that way. Have to plan a trip soon.
Had a great time! Monday was a perfect day too, less traffic and great weather conditions.
Also visited the Wheels Through Time museum in Maggie Valley, cool stuff in there and a Harley lovers dream.
a pic on the way back that I like to call "two power houses"
