I Have their highway peg mounts but not the whole forward control kit. Keep us posted if you do get it or find another kit somewhere else.
 
If they were less expensive, I would be tempted to get them to use as highway pegs. Every once in a while, it helps to stretch the legs forward for a minute or so for me.

EDIT:
Wait... highway peg mounts for $40... OH HELL YEAH!

It took 2 hours to bolt the kit on. No adjustments necessary, it was great right off. The guy from Refined Cycle helped get me the right adapters for the Arlen Ness pegs and toe pegs I bought elsewhere. That plus my new MaxGasser seat and it not only looks excellent but its comfortable for the longer trips. Turned 160 miles on Sunday and no complaints. Plus these just look correct on mine. Love it!

Looks good, probably going to look into getting a set myself due to legs cramping up.
 
Looks good.....has the front end been raked some?

Thanks Fellas!

Big time knee saver.

39 degrees in the neck, 3 in the trees. American Suspension B17 out front. It ain't exactly a stock Max no mo'
 
Looks like an "Ultima" kit with raked trees. Not something I would suggest for good stability. I haven't gotten around to doing up a kit to use the ultima fronts yet (since we want to offer the matching rear wheel too).
 
Ultima, huh?
No...its not an Ultima.

Its the same fork that holds up the V8 Boss Hoss motorcycles. The one that goes 145 on my VMax with none of that shaky nonsense the factory one had. Its mated to a neck that was hand turned and is about 4 times thicker than the Yamaha one. Sets me at 5.1" of trail. But thanks for the snarky comment Mr. Authority.

Good to hear that you wouldn't recommend it, since you don't sell them and all.

I understand there are only so many ways a front end can be made but the reason I said looked like an Ultima front is because it looked like one. if it's not so be it.
