Which foot pegs and bars did it have?

My 1997 had the mid mount pegs which are a more standard position, my 2006 has the forward pegs with stretch your legs out in front of you and lean you back more in the typical "Cruiser" position. The mid mount pegs are much more comfortable for me. I did almost 400 miles on my 2006 on Friday, on the long highway stretches I often put my feet back on the passenger pegs, tucks the legs up kind of like a sport bike, but it shifts the weight off the tailbone. By occasionally switching positions it keeps the pain away.
