| The pegs were an easy install and the adjust-ability is pretty simple. I would like a little bigger platform and a way to lock the pegs open so my feet can lay on top but other than that I am very pleased and would reccomend. |

| I ordered these when they were first announced on Wingstuff as they were the only highway pegs available at the time. After a backorder delay I finally got my hands on them in September of 2018 so I have had them for around 9 months. They immediately made a big improvement over the stock riding position although as pointed out in another review they are only really adjustable forwards and back. I found by tightening the bolts on the front of the pegs that I could lock them in place enough to be able to put my boot heels on top of the pegs without the pegs moving, giving me another position. My issue is the warranty. The weekend before July 4th I broke the left peg at its thinnest point by pushing on the pegs to stretch out. Something I have done thousands of times before with various hiway pegs ( This is my 4th Wing and I have used hiway pegs on every tourer I have owned). I contacted Rivco support who answered the phone very quickly I explained the issue and was asked for pictures which I sent to them. After being told a manager had reviewed the pictures and determined it was not something covered under warranty. They could however supply a new pair of pegs for $90. I didn't have a lot of choice as I was starting a road trip 2 days later so I paid the $90 plus another $80 for overnight shipping. The good news is that the pegs arrived as promised the next day and I was able to get the broken peg replaced before our trip. I will continue to use these until 1 fails again and reassess what is available at that time. Rivco to their credit were prompt and courteous in dealing with my issue however be warned. If you put forward pressure on the pegs by stretching out on them you may encounter the same failure as I did and even though I only needed the left peg you will have to pay for a replacement pair. |

These work well for me and they look good on the bike. Only two small issues for me, I can not rest my legs on them as the fold back in when I try that. You have to rest your boots on the pegs and not your leg. Also a rock or something hit one of the pegs and knocked off a chunk of the black paint on the peg. As for how they react in a tip over, a friend dropped his GW with the pegs extended and the peg snapped off just below the pivot point. The breakoff bolts did not budge. |

| There aren’t a lot of good choices for foot pegs for the 2018...Honda’s fault, but these are the best option. All the others look like add on’s, these don’t even show when not in use. They were easy to put on for a novice, and work great. Easy to fold out on the road while riding. Yes...they are heavy when you take them out of the box, but, I really think this 6 cylinder engine doesn’t mind! Lol. I wish they weren’t quite so wide for my legs, but that is the fault of this huge engine, not the pegs. They have never scraped while leaning over in a curve..not even close. Overall, they are the best option for foot pegs out there. They are the best add on’s I’ve put on the bike. |

| Installed and after a few trips, I’m regretting them. While they are adjustable length wise, some what, they are either open or closed, so my feet were at a 90 degree angle with the bike. I will be changing them out. |

| These pegs are wonderful. They are so beautifully integrated to the bike, especially when not in use and folded away. All the others look gaudy and "Added on". Installation is fairly easy but there are 2 slight knocks. 1) When you purchase the pegs and hols them in your hands they are HEAVY. 2) There's a lip on the edge of the pegs and on a few occasions when pulling up to a stoplight my foot has gotten hung up on that lip and almost caused me to tip over. As for those complaining about the HONDA logo being covered, this is true, however, at 6'1" my position fully covers the logo whereas a shorter rider may only cover half the logo which looks meh... |

Just received pegs and installed on bike yesterday. Very impressed with the fit and finish of item. All parts fit perfectly and was an easy install, especially with the video that you can find on the order page. Would highly recommend. |

| First off, I am very puzzled by the other review on this product, because the writer said that he didn't even INSTALL them, but that they "looked" too bulky, and "covered the Honda sign". Who cares about covering ONE of the Honda signs (there are several of them on the bike, and it is clearly a HONDA bike anyway !! ). Well, I DID install them, and I have used them for more than 2 months now, they are an absolutely fantastic solution for highway pegs on this bike. They are NOT bulky at all, and they blend in perfectly with the bike. In fact, I have had to actually specifically point them out to people who are looking at my bike, because virtually no one noticed them until I pointed them out !. They provide a very streamline look when not in use, and they are VERY easy to open or close while you are riding at highway speed by simply moving your foot under the peg to open them ( I don't even need to look at them while I am doing this). I used them on a 150 mile ride on the NY Thruway, and it made a very long ride very relaxing. I actually purchased these directly from the manufacturer several months ago, because at the time, Wingstuff did not stock it. I spoke directly with the VP of production at RIVCO (the manufacturer) and they told me that the product features shear screws, so that if you ever accidentally dropped the bike while the pegs are extended, they will "break off" so that they don't damage the valve covers of the bike !!! This WAS a problem for the previous models of these pegs, because I was going to get them for my 2015 GW 2 years ago, but that "breakaway" feature did not exist at that time, and it was a known deficiency that would actually penetrate the valve covers in an accidental drop ( in a parking lot, etc ), and cause immediate catastrophic loss of engine oil through the penetrated valve covers. That problem has now been fixed with these new pegs for the 2018 model, since it comes with "soft" screws on a section of the mounting area that are designed to shear off if the bike accidentally drops. Otherwise, they are VERY sturdy, VERY well made, and they blend in perfectly with the bike. The powder coating is beautiful. Best of all, you do NOT get that SCRAPING that you get with other types of highway pegs when you make tight turns, despite you not even using the pegs at the time. These pegs don't protrude when you aren't using them, so they can not scrape on turns. I HIGHLY recommend this product. |

Sent them back without installing them. They are very heavy, I weighed them at 9 pounds. That's 1/10th of the weight Honda cut off of the previous Wing. Also, IMO only, they are very bulky looking. They cover a large part of the engine cover, and block out most of the "Honda" insignia. |
