Awesome, Thank you! Yeah I was wondering if I should heat up a screwdriver but I will just tap it next time. Although I think I have removed most of them😂.
Thanks for the informative video, very helpful. (since Bunking sends no instructions with the kit). I purchased the newer kit specifically for saddle bags (just finished install)... NOTE info below From Bungking Web site for Saddlebag Models: "For the lower bag mount you would take the stock bracket that is in the same location as the crash bar plate and use it overtop of the crash bar mounting plate. To get it to clear you would remove the plastic bushing from the bracket and bolt to opposite side of the plate you just took it off of and flip the bracket 180 degrees, this should put the bracket in a relation that clears the crash bar." I found that statement to be BS... Flipping the bushing does not work (can't install the saddle bag on LH side if you flip the bushing). Just install the bushing bracket over the new foot peg lower flange (& put the spacer on the RH side at bottom under exhaust frame*). *Robin's comment below regarding the spacer makes sense. That bushing is same thickness as RH frame slider/passenger peg lower flange. As installed in your video; the plastic bushing (for saddle bag mount) is pushed out further away from the frame than it was in the stock condition due to large stack up with the spacer & frame slider.
I’m glad the video helped! It definitely takes a village to get these parts installed correctly. I just ordered the Harley shop manual because the more I do to the bike the more I feel like I’m going to screw something up😂🤣. Definitely a learning experience.
@@nightowlrides All good... Oh Yeah; I figured out how to install the RH side without removing the exhaust. Went to ACE Hardware & bought a 3/8-16, Grade 8, 12-point head screw,1" long) to replace the top socket head screw on RH side.. I was able to easily install & tighten it using a swivel head, ratcheting, SAE 3/8", 12-point box wrench (harbor Freight). Only drawback; ACE only has those screws in chrome finish ($10 for one screw).
Oh yeah, this one definitely takes a few curse words, one “I’m over this” and the patients of a monk. I remember loosening the exhaust but I don’t believe I completely removed it.
Unfortunately no instructions. TH-cam and a prayer😂. But I did mock it all up and then went back in to tighten it all down that helped. Anywhere you are bolting straight to frame you can probably get away with the shot bolts and longer for the places where you use the spacers.
@Night Owl Rides I hope you still actively read comments here lol but i just bought a low rider s and i would like to put theses on, did you go with standard or the +1.5 extensions
It may seem like a silly question, but in the clip when the camera is pointed down and back towards the bags they don't really seem to extend out past the bags much and doesn't look as extended and awkward as I thought they might, looking forward to your reply!
Hi Jonathan, so I started with the original sliders that came with the pegs, and you are correct they do not come past the bags. It bothered me so I made the upgrade a few weeks ago. I got the 6.5 durlin extension. But you can order that from the jump on the Bungking site.
Oh yeah make sure the strut lines up the support seat and then you have to give the bag a couple love taps to get it back into place. I kept the bag open so I didn’t scratch the paint. I hope that helps get it back on. How do you like the pegs?
@@nightowlrides I’m not quite sure I understand the first sentence? It says on the bung king site to turn the bushing on the saddle bag mount around and rotate 180 degrees. I did that and it allllmost lines up so I’ll try tapping it on and see if I can get it
@@nightowlrides appreciate it man. I was busy today so tomorrow I’m gonna try to hammer that thing on lol if I have issues I’ll reach out. It’s there an email I can send it to or where do u prefer?
@@nightowlrides Rt on ....yeah me too on hitting the saddlebags ...I'm thinking of putting a piece of clear bra cover over the part where I keep smackin it with my boot
No; I figured out how to install the RH side without removing/loosening the exhaust.

I was able to easily install & tighten it using a swivel head, ratcheting, SAE 3/8", 12-point box wrench (harbor Freight).

I replaced the original derlin slider for one that sticks out an inch longer than the hard bags. If you’re ordering off the site I believe it’s the 6.5” option. I would suggest going with that option to protect the bags
Not yet, I have to order the 6.5” Delrin slider. That will extend the peg length past the bag. The original slider is just shy. www.bungking.com/upper-shock-mount-frame-slider-replacement-hardware/
Not at first. But I upgraded the slider portion recently, so now the bags are protected as well. I have to get better at researching products before I purchase 😂
FYI, the spacer belongs on the bottom bolt of the exhaust bracket that isn't shared with the peg bracket. It makes up for the peg bracket thickness.
Best video yet for installing these pegs 👍
Wow thank you! I’m glad the vid helped!
Let me know how you like the setup. I’m still running mine. It’s a solid setup
If you ever have to remove those while covers again you just need a flat head screw driver (tap it a few times) and unscrew.
Awesome, Thank you! Yeah I was wondering if I should heat up a screwdriver but I will just tap it next time. Although I think I have removed most of them😂.
Great job,I’ve done the same on my black lowrider st
Thank you! I just extended the sliders as well so the go past the bags.
@@nightowlrides Can the extender get added while the sliders are on the bike?
Yes they can! The slider bolts on the peg so you can add or replace without taking off the whole unit
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What size is the socket to loosen the e exhaust flange?
Great video I subbed
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

I’m running Vance and Hines 2to1 wonder if I have to remove . To be honest I hate installs this involved for simple add on 😂

Did yours come with instructions I see 4 short bolts and two long bolts but not sure what to use where ?
Unfortunately no instructions. TH-cam and a prayer😂. But I did mock it all up and then went back in to tighten it all down that helped. Anywhere you are bolting straight to frame you can probably get away with the shot bolts and longer for the places where you use the spacers.

Always reading and replying. I love when people watch and say hello! Thank you!!!
hey what’s the torque spec?
Torque setting for the 6 bolts please.
37-45 ftlbs. ✌️
will it be compatible with a 2023 nightster?
thanks
Not this particular model but I believe they have a version for the sportster frame. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
So nvm my other question. Deff had to loosen exhaust but now I can’t get my bag back on the left side. I thought that side would be easier lol
Oh yeah make sure the strut lines up the support seat and then you have to give the bag a couple love taps to get it back into place. I kept the bag open so I didn’t scratch the paint. I hope that helps get it back on. How do you like the pegs?

Yeah, that sounds weird. If you want to send me a pic or a video I would be happy to help if I can.

@@nightowlrides are u able to do a detailed video of the primary side? I couldn’t get it and just took it off:/
Any issues with hitting your leg getting on and off your bike ??
No, plenty of space for the rider to get on and off. But I have to admit I kick my bags at least once a week🤦🏻🤣

Do you have to loosen exhaust?

Do these stick out past the bags incase of a tip over so the bags don't get hit?

@@nightowlrides u think the 6.5” sliders will scrape?
Did you use the extended saddle bag option?
Thanks!

Motor cycle vs four wheel
Let go 2 wheels for the win!
