Did the same thing to my 13 Fatboy. More comfortable for me and a huge improvement on ground clearance. HD had a kit for my bike. What was the total cost using just stock parts? Looks good by the way.

It wasn't cheap.....Here in Oz we pay a bit more that you in the USA.....$800 (approx US$560).
It is a huge improvement in comfort.

Nice. I really like how that looks. Have never really been a fan of floorboards.

Yes, definitely. No more footboard scraping. I find the bike is now easier to control as I have a more confident feel with my legs being in a more comfortable position.....Having said that, now my exhaust scrapes.
