| | Posted : 24 Sep 2010 - 23:04 Post title : Passenger Footboards | | | I'm thinking of replacing the stock passenger footpegs with the Triumph chromeline passenger footboards. Primarily because I think they look better but I'm assuming they would also be more comfortable.
Or is the latter perhaps not the case?  Does a peg give the passenger a greater feeling of security under acceleration and braking because you can hook the heel over it and angle the foot? 
Are there any pillion passengers out there who would argue in favour of one or the other?
Also, if anyone has the Kuryakyn ISO-Wing I'd be interested to hear their opinion of it. I reckon they'd look rather trick front & rear.

Wife thinks they are the business.
Had somebody ask me the same question when parked up by the seaside a while back. Let her try sitting on the bike, and she was convinced from a stationary point of view anyway.
