Default floorboards

so i picked up my new 2019 heritage and had the heel toe shifter added. What I didn't realize is how much the floorboards are angled down to make this shifter very cumbersome to use. Is there a way to change the angle of the floorboard to make it more level in order to use my shifter? I loved this feature on my 2014 Heritage.

You adjust the angle of the shift lever, not the floorboard.

I just picked up my 19 Heritage and of course it doesn't have the heel shifter witch I like to help find neutral. Stock is black and heel shifter in catalog is chrome. I'm going to look for a chrome shifter since that's what is used on other Softail and they appear to be the same. "Foot boards"

Default Foot Boards and Controls

I also have a '19 Heritage. I needed to make the foot controls work with size 11.5 riding shoes. H-D never gets this right for me. I have long enough legs to reach the footboards easily.

I added a Softbrake +1 brake lever and a Heelguard to the right side.

On the left side I added the H-D heel shift kit and Softbrake extended levers (+0.5" for the toe and +1.5" for the heel).

Here's some pics showing how this works out.
