Sorry.  I may have not been clear.  Mine were on the V7 only.
I knew when I bought both bikes I'd need a bit more legroom-two knee operations dictate that.  That's fine, though.  Seats and screens along with pegs and bar reach are a personal fit thing anyway.

After raising my V7 seat I knew the Norge needed that as well.  Besides, I found the stock foam WAYYYYYYYYY too soft for long distance support.  So as I rebuilt that seat I did the  KoF rebuild thing which includes a buffer between the seat pan and the rebuilt foam blend.

The end result is the same.  A bit more leg room.  The added bonus is a seat I can stay on for 100's of miles.  Just doing pegs, if the seat is ok for a rider is a much more cost effective solution.

That's ingenious...I bet if you shared this with Knight Designs, they might come up with a rubberized version (top and bottom) as well...

How's that highway peg project coming...just a few more months of winter to get it done...we're riding every weekend down here in the south and need some mods for the National Rally to show off!

Knight makes two different top surface treatments I think.

For the Norge, I think they have only two different foot pegs available, in two different colors:

Having said that, I am sure they could attach rubber bits upon request. Indeed, "Rubber tread is offered on some models...":
