engine guard

Can't directly answer your question, but engine guards have come up before and Harley makes two types. I have one with my mid-controls that bolts to the forward-control frame lugs with integral brackets. The other type have U-bolts that go around the front frame, to leave the forward controls clear. But I have to say I think your boards will be challenge to fit with guards! The U-bolt type will fit your frame, but your boards may still get in the way. A trip to your local dealer may help, to see if they have a Dyna with the U-bolt type fitted.

OK, here's some photos and a bit of background.
These floorboards are adjustable having a "toothed" attachment that allows the boards
to be rotated to different angles and a slotted section on the board itself that allows back
and forth adjustment. There is also what I would call the "dogbone" that allows the
board to be further offset to the rear or raised higher. You could probably adjust these
so that a circus midget could place his feet on them.
Depending on how they are adjusted, they can actually be raised above the height of
normal pegs, raked down on the rear of the board or just mounted flat. The mount will
swivel like the normal pegs so that they will push up if you ground them heavily.
I had a problem in that the rubber came off the left one and 2 Orange Harleys could
not (would not?) replace the piece as they said they had zero extra parts and that was that.
It's my understanding that they or someone else now has an improved version where
the rubber doesn't just glue down, but has pegs that insert into the metal.
Anyway, the first 3 photos are from last Spring with the "Dogleg" and the last two
are from today without the "dogleg". As you can see, the dogleg moved the basic
attachment point well to the rear.
Here the assembly is rotated up as if it had just been grounded hard....
