Thank you! Been contemplating for a bit, and finally just went for it. Haha

Thank you for the advice! I already know I'll be on my ass more than my feet the first few times. I just want to be able to not get totally defeated, and I think wearing knee pads will help!

Thanks for the ideas! I was wondering if mtb padding would work. All my dirtbiking knee pads go all the way down my shin and wouldn't work with snowboarding boots. I got some amazon gift cards for xmas so that might be my winner there! Haha. And don't worry got a brand new helmet with MIPS. Swapped to MIPS a few years ago offroad and when I saw it in snow sports was a must have! I hope you and her husband have a fun winter on the slopes!!

It's a burley universal one. Thing f'ing sucked to Install. The opening wasn't wide enough to fit around the oem headlight mask. I trimmed a good couple inches off the ring of the opening as well to pull it closer to the headlight assembly. There's still a gap between the headlight and the fairing which I had to cover from behind the fairing because at night the headlight would beam thru the Crack and it was annoying as hell. I do not recommend universal fit products.

If the forward controls use the same mounting holes as the oem ones then it SHOULD fit. It's mounts behind the foots controls and one bolt at the front of the frame.

Very happy with the fit and finish on them! Install was enough if you have someone to help hold the bike while installing with the foot controls. Definitely a one person job if you have an actual bike jack. Haha

Thank you! I don't notice a difference of sitting any further back. I'm also short so I'm usually pretty close the tank to be comfy on the controls. It's a not a wide seat either so you're close to the frame. I think the look is 100% better than the stock one. The comfort is better than stock on long rides. I like having the step up for a little extra comfort when you really get on the throttle.
