I have Graydon on my 400EX and they are truly the greatest. They are almost twice the size of DG oens(DG ones are crap)
On my LT250R I'm going to get AC though. I think the LT would look better with the AC than graydon. both great brands though

I have AC polished pro-peg nerf bars on my Banshee, and there great. I would not go with DG, but Graydon are good to that is what I got on my Warrior. Give Nac's racing a call they will get them out to you.

I got the AC pro-pegs on my 250R and I like them a lot. Check them out at their web site at www.acracing.com.

I think the AC's defeat the purpose of nerf bars. They do not go underneath and behind the peg to protect you from running your leg behind the peg and under the rear tire. I believe that honda is a safety consious company and a stock 400ex comes with floor boards from the rear of the peg back to keep your leg out of the tire. If that wasn't necessary, don't you think Honda would put on a forward mounting protector! Maybe what I'm saying makes me sound like an idiot, but this is how I feel about it and was wondering why no one else has metioned it, even the last time this topic was posted.

The true purpose of nerf bars is not to keep your feet on the pegs but to keep other bikes from running their wheels in between yours and getting tangled together. I know a lot of people use them for extra peg area but that is not what they were initially designed to do.

Nerf Bars are in fact there to protect you from your competitors tires, but they can also protect you from your own tires to, namely your back ones. I know my feet hit the nets of mine quite often. I am sure I prefer they hit the nets of my crappy DG nerfs as opposed to my rear tires running up the back of my legs. Design Genius, I thought I remembered months ago you said you already had a BIg Gun exhaust on your machine, but now you dont, but recommend the Big Gun.

Personally, I think the DGs look pretty sweet, and I havent had any problems with them, and for what it is worth I think the AC ones have to small a platform, but they do look pretty sweet.
