Very popular nerfs, and alot of members here use them,. like them, they are good and do the job well.
But,... be forewarned,
They are a P.I.T.A. to install

i disagree, the hardest part of putting them off are breaking the allen bolts on the stock pegs

I have the same ones (not blackline) and love them. I don't see how they're heavy, made out of aluminum, maybe 10lbs. I did have a bolt fall off on me once and the left nerf came off. I ran it over at like 40 mph and it didn't leave a scratch. Pretty sure it fell off because I took them off to re-web them and didn't use locktite on the bolts. Put them back on with longer bolts, nuts on the back side and didn't forget the locktite. They are rock solid. I'm right around 6'5" 280lbs and I can stand on one side. Lastly, I don't see how they'd be a pain to install. I can get mine off and on in less than a minute. Maybe they fit different on different years.

Here's some pictures in case you were interested.

I have AC nerfs and I really like them. Like a few others have said, they are a pain to install, but once on, they are strong and look good.

The only thing I would warn you about. AC is horrible to deal with as a company. If you can get them through a dealer go for it. If you are planning on buying them through AC directly, don't even try.

from my experience every ac pro peg ive had to put on dosnt fit right you have to bend and fight them to get them on...but thats just the trend ive seen with them some ppl have had issues and others dont....i also dont think there that strong

what the hell are you on man? lol my old pro armor fat pegs were 2 times heavier!

reason i want ac pro pegs is because it lowers the peg and moves it back a little (atleast it did on my 250r). Makes it a much more comfortable ride for me. Also ill be going with an antivibe stem and TAG T2 bars

I'm curious as to why some people say they are hard to mount. Mine couldn't have gone on easier.
