Pic #1. Will this most popular Model DD work for you?
Hang your feet ahead of your foot pegs. Move your feet in so the ends of your brake and shift levers touch just below your ankle bones. This peg position is 3-4" below your shift and brake levers. The moving clip is a 6' rider whose shin is close to the chrome plastic when using Model DD. He turns his heel out slightly to clear the stock foot peg when going in and out of the Mick-O-Pegs. Model DL's peg is 1 1/2" higher.

Pic #2. Here's a size 10 boot resting on Model DD and its relationship to the stock foot peg. Although the stock foot pegs fold up and back, you can get a "trapped" feeling if your heel hits the stock foot peg. If you like the position, but have difficulty turning your heels out, consider Models ED, E.5D, EL which have knurled pegs pointing outboard.

Pic #3. The GL1800 yearns for the turns. Although the suspension is different while riding thru a turn, this photo provides an idea of clearance lost. The stock foot peg has started to fold up before our cover touches. The cover of the Mick-O-Peg has no sharp corners and is made of aluminum. Replacing a cover or even a block scraped in an aggressive turn is less costly than replacing a scraped engine guard. If this block is not mounted tightly, it can twist up if the cover hits the ground hard.

Pic #4. Find COMFORT by stretching down, not out. The bottom of the "peg" is about even with the bottom of the engine.

Pic #5. How much can you lean? Slow to the posted speed on turns and your inboard heel or peg may touch the road or be very close. In other words, you can lean a little more than when your bike is resting on the sidestand.
