mid floorboards might be cool
Ive seen one with a standard LR seat that does about what youre saying. Personally I love the ride position but it does seem changing a seat height could be a considerable change by itself. Im a long time MX guy so I love the control/feel of mids so Id never change that.

Yeah, I don't get stock Harley seat height with mid-pegs, makes it feel like a trike. Great bike that's not comfortable for a large chunk of average to tall height riding population.

I test-rode Fat Bob and Low Rider S back to back, and have to agree, the riding position on the LRS was just really weird. I felt like I was riding a kid's trike, with my knees about to hit my chin. I'm 5'11" with 32" inseam, and grew up on sport bikes, so I thought it would be a no-brainer for me, alas it was not to be. Fat Bob fit like a glove on the other hand. Just my 2 cents...

I know you sell an adapter for pegs but do they, the adapters, fit a stock harley floorboard and if so, what year and model?

The Floorboards we have (in chrome & black) mount in a clevis, just like the footpegs do. You can see more details HERE.

My Two Cents
Im a 6 tall 1%ER and have been riding now for 54 years. I recently purchased a 2020 Low Rider S and absolutely love the bike and the way its set up for my height and my arm length, but its all personal preference, and yet any real biker worth his salt overcomes and adapts to whatever bike he saddles up on. The throttle response, handling, and suspension of this bike is outstanding for a professional biker. Some of my brothers have ridden my new bike and have the same opinion, but we 1%ERs love our Dynas. It never ceases to amaze me the number of modern era riders who whine and complain about comfort, styling, bike setup, etc., while discounting how far weve come since the first bikes came out with their rudimentary suspensions, small displacement motors, and bicycle tires, and yet hard-core riders around America back in the day traveled on crappy roads which were dirt, mud, and gravel. Ive added an engine guard, a fairing, and a short sissy bar just to strap gear to my seat. Thinking about adding Tbars, but gonna keep stock ones on for awhile as they were engineered for the bike and its particular handling/engineering dynamics. Im diggin the HELL outta this new model.
