Hi what cup holder are you using, that’s exactly what I’ve been looking for, I have the same crash bars. Tks. Jeff

Mine came with a thin piece of rubber glued to the clamp area, with the rubber in the clamp the pegs tended to slip when I put a lot of pressure on the pegs so I removed the rubber and cleaned off the glue now they clamp tight to the bars and don’t slip at all.

Finally got pics of my TRex highway pegs. Very well made and arms are adjustable 360 degrees. They also come with short and long arms (short arms shown). These are mounted on T Rex crash bars and should fit any crash bars because of the long and short arms. They are also available in 7/8 or 1”...

Thanks Eric, did you have any problems with motels, did you book them in advance like the night before or just take a chance when you arrived for the night. I remeasured the fender to horn clearance it’s actually 7” not 8. I’m going get 50/50 tires for the ride something that will last 6000...

I see you have highway pegs on your bike, did you use them much and how is it without a backrest. I was planning on buying the T-Rex Racing highway pegs. When I did the USA Four Corner ride I’d had them on my DL1000, they came in handy for the long rides but I also had a backrest. Did you...

Tks. Eric, I actually have 8” of clearance from the top of the fender to the horns, I haven’t moved the fender up. How did you attach the fender when you moved it up?

Thanks for the advice Eric, I was planning on removing the rear hugger prior to the trip. It’s nice to know has wont be a problem, just trying to think ahead for all poss. Problems we might have. I have 8” of clearance on the front fender now, how much should I move it up?
