Has anyone seen this in person or have one? Nice idea but darn, 700.00 bucks? That's a little steep

Holy smoke it sure is,

 

Nice concept but OUCH on the price!

 

Hope the sell a lot of them, just won't be to me. I would not want the extra clutter covering my chrome, and would not want to loose that kind of weight in my wallet to do it.

 

Won't need that on the '14, with the higher handle bars I just use the drivers floor boards. Couldn't use them on the '12, because of the lower bars.

 

Right all...I think I have a friend that could make me a set if I wanted....I would use highway pegs instead, smaller footprint on trike...

 

When you watch John's video of how to mount a trike it makes that step totally unnecessary. I've been using his method for some time now and it doesn't' get much simpler. Yeah, he's on a Goldwing but the method is the point of the vid.

 

But the wing has the floorboards mounted in the center, not forward...

 

I step on the front floorboard of my TriGlide with my right foot and then up on the rear with my left just like the video shows and it works for me. Getting off is just as easy as the video shows also. Put my left foot back on rear floorboard, stand up swing your right leg back over and right foot goes to front left floorboard and you're off.

I can think of a lot better places to put $700.

 

Looks like it may be convenient...but not only is it pretty expensive.....BUT...I already don't like that I have to pull the Passenger Kury peg and the Passenger OEM floorboard just to pull the Derby cover, but it sure looks like I would also have to pull the mid-step to get to the Derby.
