Cool floor boards or forward controls

tough desision guys, could use your input. contenplating changing over to forward controls on my 04 fatboy. some people say you will regret it, the others say go ahead you will love it. im 6ft 1 and like to stretch my legs out as i did before on my hard tail chopper. i know you can extend your floor boards with kits. its seems to get more complicated by the day. whats a guy to do? any feed back from guys who have gone to forward controls and which brand would be greatly appreciated . thanks

I like my floorboards. If you want to stretch your legs you could always get highway pegs as well. I prefer having the option of moving my foot around on the floorboard as opposed to only having one way to rest my feet.

Floorboard extension or keep the floorboards and add highway pegs, I like to have both.
