I put the aluminum pegs on my 5G. Couldn't believe how inexpensive they were @ H-D. IIRC < 40 bux the pair. You're aware you need to do a bit of metal removal on the new pegs so they will be at a proper angle? I also had to shim the Uly pivot holes. The bore is larger than the VFR pivot pin diameter. You can get the proper tube sizes in aluminum or brass. I sleeved 2 tubes, one inside the other, to get the best fit. The tube can be found at hobby/craft shops and some hardware stores. Good fortune, R~
No, I couldn't find them at $35 for the pair either. Mine came from the local HD dealer. I haven't mounted them yet, so thanks for the heads up. I have a new Dremel I'm itching to break in. Sounds like this is the project!
You don't need to do any work on them to fit a 6th gen, other than the shim the pin, but even that is not really needed. I just installed them on my bike no issues.

Looking for a place to buy these. Several forums topics say they should only run about $35 for the set. Everywhere I look they run $75 - $125.
If I recall, the Ulysses pegs cost more and have different dimensions than the run of the mill (Lightning) pegs.
For a completely different option, these 360 degree adjustable ones look interesting.

A video of their product.
Hmmmmm...Odd. Another member posted the part number for the Ulysses pegs he used. Said as a set they used part number n0006.1ad. Quick google search brought that ebay link up as well as a couple oter online stores.
Wonder if he had the wrong part number or is unaware he didnt get ulysses pegs?
