Forward Controls Reply #525 - 07/24/18 at 07:25:44 I think how far forward you need controls is a matter of personal comfort. Your height and handlebar version come into play, I made my own temporary pegs and adjusted them to see what worked best. For me I didn't even notice a difference between 4" and 5"

That's fair. Since I'm not really a tall person, or even someone with a long inseam, it's probably best if I do some measurements to see where my feet would comfortably rest.

Forward Controls Reply #528 - 07/25/18 at 11:40:39 I don't notice much of a difference either between a 4 and 5 inch set and I have tried them both. Right now I'm riding with a 4 inch prototype I made from way back. elric, let me know what size you want, I have sold out the last small batch and need to start another one.

Ed,

I wrote a few days ago stating that I would like to get a set of 5" extensions, but have realized that a 4" set would be better for my height and inseam. Please put me down for a set of 4" instead. Thanks.

I'm in the middle of working my bee hives and pulling honey and won't be able to start a batch till next week so it will be about ten days to two weeks before I'll have some ready. Right now I'm making a five for Roborider, and two fours, one for crotchett and one for elricfate. I'll rough out a few more for faster turn around as I make this batch.
Going to try to keep my finger out of the band saw this time Wink

Good call, both on the 4" and the finger. Cheesy
