Highway peg extension
I think these are Kuryakn pegs, their lighted. Is there an extension for them? They don’t stick out far enough for me at 6’3”.

Re: Highway peg extension
Welcome to the forum. Where are you from?
If you like those boards, Kuryakyn makes a number of different mounting arms using different offsets and lengths. The arms can be rotated if you just want to lo push them forward. You can also slide the mounts fore and aft on the engine guards. Everyone likes something different so some experimentation may be needed.
If you want the most choices and offering, I suggest Mick-O-Pegs. They have several versions for the GL1800 and they are spring loaded to stay out of the way when not being used. There is more info on this forum (use search) or go their site. You can use their fitment analysis: http://www.ridingiswonderful.com/page5.php

Re: Highway peg extension
As Andy mentioned, they make shorter arms, but it looks like you already have the six inch ones and they are the longest. You can, by your pictures, get about another inch out of the clamps, and maybe rotate the six inch arms further forward, then the boards back towards you, but you need to take care to not rotate the heel of the boards past where they will scrape on cornering.
Now, if you meant the ability and extensions to further widen the space from the bike outboard, then no Kuryakyn does not make anything for this to the best of my knowledge.

Re: Highway peg extension
Thanks. I’m from California but located in Chattanooga. I’m just going to put my other pegs on it.Andy Cote wrote: ↑Sun Feb 20, 2022 6:30 am Welcome to the forum. Where are you from?

Re: Highway peg extension
Once you figure out what you prefer you may want to consider laying the bike over on a piece of carpet in the garage. Make note of what hits the carpet first, and if it's the foot pegs you may want to move and remount them until they're not the first thing hitting (the road). Too many stories of people catching a peg and spinning off into the weeds.
