    Hello, I was wondering whether you could give me an address in the UK where a restrictor Kit for a V-Rod HD can be purchased. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Having owned a Night Rod Special in the past I would not recommend a restricted V-rod to any beginner Banjospanner, far too heavy in my opinion, get something at least 100kg lighter, far better as a starter bike, good luck with your search

    .....That said, I don't like the forward peg position of the current range, and most cruisers. Some cruisers like the Honda Magna and some of the Sportsters have a sort of mid peg position, which is far better for me.

    I'm not fond of the forward controls, either, so I have a Road King Custom, with the flat fooboards. The only thing I found was that the 'rocker' gearlever forced my foot too far forward, so I took it off, and now my legs are at a nice 90 deg angle. No issue on the brake side.

    I noticed a lot of yanks mount a set of forward pegs as well as the ones with the controls. So if they want to stick out the oul legs on a long staight stretch the option to do it is there

    I tried them on another bike, but tbh I found them extremely uncomfortable, putting a lot of strain on the lower back.
