When I bought my Bandit, my brother busted my balls because the air cleaner covers are chrome!  he says "What is that?...a Harley!!"

I think the only thing I'd want to take off a harley and put on my Bandit is my BUTT!! :stickpoke:

To each his own I guess, keep the black side down!

I never thought I would say it, but I am considering such a set-up.

You know guys I will be 50 in next April and you would think that I would be considering highway pegs but the truth is that the only time in my life I wanted them was when I owned a cruiser at age 30 hoping that I would impress some sweet thing (GIRL) on the expressway. But that was a cruiser and although I know some like mayo with their peanut butter sandwiches I cant imagine doing that to my bike, especially since the Bandito rides so well and has such a roomy seat all you have to do is move your ass and stretch your knees apart momentarily and your good for another 100 miles. Don’t butcher the B12...

So can you naysayers ride >10 hrs per day and only sit on the seat and stand on the pegs?  

If your answer is "yes," then wow, impressive.

If your answer is "no," then bugger off.

Testy! :roll:... Maybe one day when my knees give out, I'll get some too!.. personally I find leaning over the tank and putting my feet up on the rear pegs really comfy to relieve any sort of fatigue I might experience on long trips. PLUS, its a lot more aerodynamic.

Unfortunately, I regularly carry a pillion so using the rear pegs is sort of difficult - I like the idea of Highway Pegs for long rides down boring straight roads, but would remove them for everyday/normal use.

I suppose there is another option - don't take long rides down boring straight roads :duh:  :duh:
