I have wanted one of these bikes since the original model Concours came out. I now have one, in addition to a Harley and a BMW.

Congrats!!!!

I love that commercial!!! I have just seen this, so sorry it took so long for a reply.
Question: I have a new lower seat from Saddleman on my C14 and I have the highway pegs in hand and the handlebar risers that I hope to install both tomorrow. I had a set of riders peg lowerers from AST that did not work out so I am looking for others. I was about to order a set of Murph's when I saw mention in a YouTube install video on something or other that he had 'already installed the Buell footpegs...." The Murph's are $92 and the Buell's on eBay are $49.99. Can anyone comment on the two. They both seem to have the same characteristics and do exactly the same thing to the same measurements. The Murph's require I believe are purely remove - bolt on new - ride, but I seem to have seen mention somewhere of some grinding needed for I think the Buells. Comments?

I have Murph’s lowering pegs on my 16, I like them!

I like it too, even though I have no name in the game.

Since I need pegs that make the ground closer, I obviously have no personal experience here, but while you're waiting for someone with experience to show up:

If you use the Buell foot peg, replace the long "feeler" bolt with a very short one-bolt/screw.
I had to grind the top surface to fit. I used a bolt because the Buell peg hole is larger than my pin.
If you need more leg room add the 2015 Concours Touring Seat.
