#447395 Babolp (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 8 Forwards to forward 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Went from boards to forwards because cornering became hazardous. Plus like the look of forwards. Problem is I'm 5'5" and forwards are a little stretch for me. Does anyone know if they sell something to move the forwards back a little? Or can something be modded to work? Thanks guys for any insight and all have a safe and happy new year.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #447399 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

If you have ones like I have there is no way to maove them back unless you move them outboard a lot. I am 5'-8" 31 inseam and I have a Mustang seat I had modified to push me forward even more than the seat did to start. Your best bet is a modified seat.

If I move them out 1" I could probably get 2" back   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #447414 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

When I put forwards on mine, I had to extend the linkage about 2-3 inches, so if he moves his pegs back wouldn't it be about right?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #447530 Keggyhander (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 128 Re:Forwards to forward 1 Year, 5 Months ago   I am 5'10" and I love boards. I will never go back to pegs. Too tiring at motorway/freeway speeds.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #447557 3 UP (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 174 Re:Forwards to forward 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Post a few close up pics nothing is impossible I know what you mean about boards, feels like your riding a big scooter to me   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/12/31 15:16 By 3 UP.   Build Thread http://roadstarclinic.com/component/option,com_fireboard/func,view/Itemid,187/catid,57/id,274901/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #447558 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 14910 Re:Forwards to forward 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Because if he moves his controls out to miss the pipes with the master cylinder then he will be to far out of alignment for his shifter rod to work properly. Not that he will have enough rod as I had to extend mine about 1 1/2".   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #447607 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am..
