- Highway Pegs aren't hard to install, but some setups look better than others! This week I throw down some tips on how to make yours look perfect. I also have a great place to keep a cup holder out of sight, but still be there to help carry your thirst quencher!

Great idea on the footpeg mount positioning, getting the 3 positions out of it!! I will use that for sure. Thanks for sharing, and love your page man, keep em coming!!
That scratch on the engine guard escalated quckly!
Don’t scratch your engine guard
LOVE the marriage scenario John! Lol, you nailed that perfectly!
That tangent was brilliant!!!
I appreciate the flow and candor you have while on camera. Good stuff, dude!
One of your best vids!!! Loved the humor...
the videos and the humor and content just gets better and better and better.
Another great video john, keep it up your a big inspiration in my life with what you do, i see you got alot on your mind as i have also broken many plastic mounts over tightening, have fun in texas in the parade
Was stoked to see the Torque vest! Got mine during the Labor Day sale and I love that thing.
What an awesome idea and set up with the pegs.
That’s rant about the van was gold! Keep that up
Solid logic on why to start with the right side.
OMG ! You had me crying on the whole van down by the river and your engine guard won't fit the van ! Lol keep up the good work
Very laid back, real world. Good job.
I love the fact that you're humble enough to show that even professionals have the d'uh moments like overtightening stuff.
Enjoy the trip John!! Safe travels Dude!
Taco Bell certainly has the best fast food breakfast! I've had the regular C3D cup holder on my Ultra Limited for 2 years, and it holds my 30oz YETI just fine, but, back in April I bought the Big-Ass for the passenger, and the wife loves it!
Great van rant lol!
I make that van down by the river reference from time to time and got tired of the blank stares from my kids, so I just sat them down last night to watch the SNL bit so that they would at least know what I am talking about for a change. Loved the video and the speech. I am planning to add some pegs to my bike and you gave me some things to think about regarding placement that I hadn't thought about. Also loved that you left the mistake in, shows that anyone can over tighten and warns others to be careful on that part.
Your only human did a nice job love your channel I fixed my heated hand gripes with your tip so thank you be safe on the road
Fun to watch and helpful tips
OMG that escalated quickly! From some comfy pegs to living in van down by the river! Set it and forget it! Love it!
👍Thanks, John. Excellent tips! ✨
"In a van down by the river" classic 🤣🤣🤣
I'm not a Harley guy, but I appreciate this guy's approach and style of humor. Plus some of this may carry over to the metrics that I do ride.

Love the reference John!
You're way ahead of us Matthew. That's my Advice too ,get a Van first...you can always get another girl with a Harley but just in case she's a sport bike type I got both...lol
@@paulhorvath9784 😂👍😎
Glad to see you with one of my Efriends, Shawn Smoaks. Another mechanic god, like yourself.
I think your bike sounds awesome!
You are too daggone funny!!! Love the videos......keep em' coming. Thanks
Good to meet you today, have a great weekend!
OMG, the rant about black engine guards 😂😂😂 my wife found that hilarious! Good thing she rides as well!
Have a great ride brother!!!!
The scratched up engine guard went down a rabbit hole. Wow. Subscribing because of that
You totally should have released this video last week. I scratched the hell out of my new engine guard re adjusting the right side highway peg Monday night. That’s one of those things only experience teaches you. Lol
Another Great tip John 👍 ! 😎
Pretty soon you're living in a VAN down by the RIVER! :)
Another great video John...you stay safe on your trip, see ya in Paris ✌🇺🇸🤙🇺🇸😎
I'm new to HD. But not YT. I appreciate the whole Van hypothetical. Lol. Well done sir.
I love the Chris Farley reference and the way you put it in.
Love your videos
Hilariously scary analogy, JM! Y'all crack me up (open?)! Have a great time going to Paris Texas 😎.
Stay cool 😎, be safe and have fun. Giddy up...
Great job bro
glad to hear you aint in a van, I was worried for a minute.
One of your best yet John! Stay away from the van next to the river.....
Definitely. In the same boat as you with the baby bagger build. In my case, it’s a 18 FLSB.
I'm building a bike but I've decided I really want a new street glide. I live 45 min from u. Hopefully in the next couple months I'll get my bike. Itd be cool if I could ride with ya some day. Love all ur videos man. Wish I were in paris with y'all.
😂 livin in a Van down by the river. Love it nice touch John lol.
Great stuff! Thank you.
Ciro makes great stuff!
Oh man, I’ve had a few “heavy handed” incidents myself. Thanks for leaving that in there. Had to wait till the next morning to pick up bolts at my local HD shop. Those long waited hours were no fun. I’ll never reuse those black inner rocker cover flange bolts again
when you mount the foot pegs you can also wrap black electrical tape around your engine guard to protect your paint
I did this when installing my helmet lock. The HD lock doesn't fit the bars right and was slipping. A little electrical tape around the bars gave it something to grip, and I trimmed the excess when done.
I love the Chris Farley reference. Classic!!
Love the van story.🤘🏻
hi john!~ always appreciate!!👍👍
SHOUT OUT FROM SE NEW MEXICO, great videos I was needing some advice, any chance you can do a review on seats for a 2018 Road King Special..... keep up the vids great info and this one was on point....
Excellent video! I am trying to figure out if mounts are available for the stock engine guard for 21 RG Special. Did not expect this to be a big deal. Seems to be an issue because there is not enough of a straight section on the pipe. Any ideas on this would be appreciated.
Great Video and always informative tips and suggestions with parts and repairs. I turned 50 and decided to buy a Harley, WTH... right? Love my bike, its been 2 months with ZERO regrets! Hey, can you explain a little about your mounts and choice for your blue tooth sound bar on the handlebars? I have stock handle bars, any suggestions for me. Also, my foot from time to time scrapes the bags in the back and leaves a smear / scrap. Any ideas for the scrap marks I leave... lol, but seriously, how do I unmark the scratches.
Thanks and keep up the great work and videos!
2k miles, 2 months, LOVE the bike so far.
That's some wisdom right there!

Can I please use this saying? 🤣🤣🤣
@@SkidPig seriously a friend of mine told me that almost 40 years ago when we were working on his truck. At the time he worked for Western Electric and he had a lot of funny sayings like that.
Johnny boy, I laughed my ass off listening to that story. It was priceless! Thank you brother.
Wish I could bring my 2019 RK Special to you. Not getting anywhere with my local dealer. You seem to be a honest person. My RKS first has a wobble at 40 mph. After playing with the steering head bearing adjustments it still wobbles.Now at 4k miles it's blowing oil smoke on start up. Seems there is a lack of trying to fix this bike. I have a 2015 Twin Cam Road King with 25k miles and it runs like a top. Not happy with this new bike. Can't believe this is not the only one out there with problems.
Im digging the flipped mirrors
Great interlude story 🤘
What a darn funny video. I did learn a lot from ya on the one time placement for 3 positions.
Hip and lower back gets me since I have forward controls with foot pegs.

Upside down pegs are useful extra protection when practicing low speed maneuvers.
I just ordered the Ciro pegs and clamps. There is a difference from the time of this video. The clamps do not come with the peg attachment; you need to order the peg with "with mounts" to attach the peg to the mount. Thanks for the video John, I am getting the same guards and pegs for my Heritage.
Started watching some of your videos, very cool and helpful! Question - around 11:15 when you start riding it looks like a speaker system mounted by your handlebars... what kind is that and is it compatible with various HDs? I have a 2017 Street Bob.
The rant about the engine guard got me rolling 😂
Im gucci! I got the motorcycle along w the van to store my motorcycle and engine guard installed today!
A truly brilliant explanation of why it is important to install the right side highway peg first. No one wants to have to figure how to install a powder coated engine guard on a van...
Just got my bike in July. Great channel bro, only one I’m subbed to for Harley’s 👍 lots of great info. Are you hitting Galveston for Lonestar?
Another great video brother, yeah you don't want to end up in a Van LoL, see you and TJ THE ORNERY ONE, Friday in Texarkana, ride safe live long Brother ✌️ N❤️💯
"Baby Bagger Build" Hahahahaha. I like it !! Also … there is a Down By The River - Van Village down the mountain from me. None of them own motorcycles. I'm willing to guess they all own brand new, unused engine guards. Very sad, they should have followed your advice.
Hope to see you bro on Saturday! Hopefully not in the van, however vans are cool! Especially the 70s van with wizards painted on the side ! Lol 😂
Hilarious John. I haven’t heard a head game in decades.
Loved it! In a Van...down by the RIVER!
dude I watch as many of your video as I can . I got my sportster 03 in great condition and I fit and test everything to work as well as it can ..I have been riding for 45 years and just got this bike last June and put 9,000= miles on it in 5 months ,my old lady tells me why don't I just wire past the key . I never shut it off anyway ...lol , well when I got this bike ,I got it from a guy that lost his leg a jet sky accident, and he had the bike with some mods .. one short brake linkage and shifting linkages the other was removed the engine guard and put a straight road high way bar on . this dose just what you were talking about and lets me rest my toes on the highway pegs and my heel on the foot pegs best set up I have ever seen on any bike ...and the last thing I can add is one time I was resting at a rest stop and a guy pulled up with his bike and ask if I needed help and we talk for a few . he took 6 of those cup holders and put them above the head light like a 6 pack holder .. I still think about that and lol ....stay safe stay free
Awesome video bro. Just subscribed.
I bought a Road King about a week ago and looking for pegs.
What Cell Phone mount do you use? Having a hard time finding one for a large phone with reviews not saying the vibrations didn't mess up their camera.
Thanks!
How do you like the cup holder on the highway bar? I have mine mounted on the bars attached to the housing. But like the look you have there. Was wondering if it was easy to get to and out of the way of your leg. I use a Yeti also and want everything to stay cold as I ride here in Columbus-Phenix City area.
Great info, question. What type of gloves are your wearing (riding) in the video?
I use a tank bag with 2L CamelBak bladder and associated tube/straw for water. Simple, functional and doesn’t make my bike look like a lounge chair...plus I ride Full face only. For coffee, I dedicated another 1L CamelBak bladder and put it in a small insulated lunch bag (find on Amazon). I only fill it with about 20oz of coffee to allow for expansion, and it’s plenty to drink before getting to work for a top off. The bladders don’t like super hot temperatures...200F or more, but hot coffee hit with some half and half seems to work just fine. The insulated pouch I use is small and doesn’t add much more in taking up space. A quick rinse wince to work and a wash once home, All worth while effort on cold morning commutes (40 miles @ 70mph one way, as low as mid 20F-40F in the winter). Ride on!
That was was some funny sh@t when you veered off down into that "van down by the river" rabbit hole....sounds like some of the kind of conversations I've had with myself
Love my big ass cup holder, but I added the floorboard relocation brackets and an extended brake pedal and with my pegs it really eases pressure on my hips....
Hey, at least you had a van on the river instead of just having to live, and sleep, on your bike. Been there, done that, but was when I was kicked out of my parents when I turned 18 and all I had was the bike.
Oh man. I got kicked out at 18 too. I feel your pain. 18, homeless, and broke. However, I think it's what made me successful today. Ride Safe!
I got a pic of a van!
i do the same thing with a straight edge and tape measure. the other step i do is, i put a wrap of masking tape at the location that would be the bottom of the mount. sharpie marks are sometimes hard to see on black.
Hey John, that whole wife saying too much bike stuff and livin by the river in a van with a spare black engine bar was hilarious, made me laugh out loud!
Glad I’m not the only one that mounts them so you can put your heal on the boards and toe on the pegs.
Your the BOMB...... Lol....... Love the cup holder....
Hahahaha the van rant was great
Awesome!
Where did you get your windscreen? Apparently Memphis shades doesn't carried that solid lower black style anymore do you have any idea where I can get it for my 07 road king? Thanks, and keep up the interesting videos brother.
Very nice Harley . What speaker system is that and is it loud enough to hear over road noise ?
Hey John....I have a 2000 Heritage Softail. I am looking at most of the bolt heads and they are Hex. What sizes do I need? Can you recommend a set of sockets/wrenches please? All my "Chinesium" junk does not fit and strips out.
I like if you leave the mishaps in or at least mention them so it is something to be aware of if we do the same mod. I have the mustache guard on my bike, but still would like to add highway pegs. Noticed you flipped your mirrors, are they the stock ones?
How about finding a set of forward controls for the
2019 Heritage Classic 114
Omg. Fella. You are so funny with your way out connections of some imaginary future. Nice vid.
What is the country of origin for the Ciro3D gear? Do they outsource overseas? Another quality video, thank you John.
She leaves then she gets the house, so she doesn’t leave ... The blooper at the end was great need to do more of these ... great info for the pegs would love 3 different positions thank you
Bro, U are HILARIOUS
Yep thank we all done it over tighten . So you riding to FLMM got my room
John, I noticed you mentioned you would like to attend Bike Blues and BBQ. I assume you are referencing the MC rally in NW Arkansas. I attend this rally each year when not traveling. I hope you make it some time and maybe I will see you there. Enjoy all your videos, keep them coming.
