MFW looks really well made, but I see potential issue here.

The choice of pegs is pretty low, and none are designed to mitigate vibrations. I'm looking for rubber pad/bumper style. CB1100 vibrates like a mofo at speed, put your feet on passenger pegs and you won't last a minute without feet going numb.

The mounting geometry doesn't allow for OEM style peg fitment, which is where the endless sea of replacement choices are. So if Kawasaki pegs aren't up to the task, I can choose from hundreds more.

Stay tuned for the writeup once the parts get here.

That was my initial concern as well. Here's what I found riding with the the solid mount pegs for a couple of years: 1) I only ride with my feet on the forward pegs for about 15 minutes at a time--just long enough to unfold my legs and give my knees a break--then my feet are back in the normal position for about another 45 minutes. 2) When I'm wearing my riding boots, I feel only a light buzz through the pegs, and that's going between 65-75 mph. Maybe that's because I put custom insoles in my boots. IDK. 3) I'm stopping for gas about every 2 hours anyway when I go on longer trips, so I use the highway pegs less than I thought I would.

YMMV.
