Kury has a 1 1/2" clamp to go with their Longhorn highway pegs:

Link edit - Longhorn offset

Hmm. Doesn't seem to want to load directly to the popup. Have to look under Metric, then click on Longhorn offset Dually, for anyone interested.

Re:Preferred engine guards? 6 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Got the Cobra regular bars (thanks again Hardone2get). This is the first set of big bars I've ever had so I don't have anything to really compare them to. Looked at the Yami bars at the dealer for $189.00 but couldn't justify the price right now (read = cheap). Next I'm looking at a sissybar rack. $114.00 in Yami catalog. Guess I'll start huntin'.

I the Yamaha small engine guards with Kury, ISO pegs. It was OK, but I replaced them with a Lidby bar and man is it nice. I like the integrated foot rest and the quality of the bar is great. I hope I never have to test it!!!

Re:Preferred engine guards? 6 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Just as a general experience to share, I highly recommend checking eBay motors (www.motors.ebay) for bargains. I've won several items at great prices, and some stuff's just for sale (often at deep discounts).

For example, I got my MC Enterprices engine guard for $100. It was on a show bike and immaculate. Got mt Dunlop front tire as a clearance item for $41 and $10 shipping. Six brake pads(front and rear) = $33.25. Chrome eyebrows for my headlight and running lights = about $32. What else? What else? I can't remember now....

You can have my Cobra's for $120. I've only had them for 2 months and my bike has been sitting for about a month as I finish mods. They are in brand new condition. Let me know.

If I may ask, why are you selling? Are they the fattys?

Not the fattys, I put them on the bike looked at it and decided I didn't like the look, which in turn has inspired the month long modfest.

Does anyone know what highway bars will fit with floorboard extenders? I am 6'4" I need floorboard extenders.

Thanks, Stan
