Default Floorboards with mid controls on FXDC

Anyone using floorboards with mid controls on your Dyna? I'm too short for any type of forward control. Actually, I'm very comfortable when my mid controls are but I'd like floor boards rather than pegs. Is this an option for me? There are a lot offered on Ebay but I have been advised that the small "cheap" boards will vibrate the hell out of my feet.

Take a look at wyatts boards for a Dyna,. They are the same as the boards for the FXDP (Police), and are located further back, and a little higher than stock boards.http://www.debrix.com/Wyatt-s-Footbo...27-0920-vt.htm

Hope this helps.

Best wishes, and Merry Christmas....Tim(HT)

Thanks Tim, I've read plenty of your posts regarding the Wyatts. It looks like the brake and shifter peg will be too far forward for my short legs. I'm using a stock seat (that may change soon) and 10" mini apes. I'm very comfortable when I am, I'm just looking for floorboards that would fit mid controls. Any other thoughts?

Sherry, These are Kuryakyn passenger boards, Of course this photo shows when I had them mounted as forwards,
but they work mounted at the mid point as well. They attach to your mid just as your stock peg does. (easy).. I like your avatar

You may want to check out the HD mini floorboards (50451-09). I have them on my FXDC and find them to be an improvement over footpegs. I am using them with the forward control kit.

Have you considered pegs w/stirrups? Like these:

Not floor boards but a big improvement over just a peg. With mids they made a considerable difference in comfort, for me.

ya, thanks guys. I'm looking for a regular size floorboard to go where my mids are now. I'm aware of the Wyatt's kit and I'd love to have that if I knew I could reach the brake and have $400 to spend right now. In the meantime I'm just looking for simple boards that can be easily changed out with my stock mid control pegs.

Hey Sherry, let us know how this pans out.

Riding over 40 years but I never rode a bike with floorboards. Pegs were never a problem for me and puts me closer to the controls.

But the boards must let you change your position more, after all, they are on all the Touring frames. I should rent one to try it out.

Ronn, those are great loking boards. I've looked at them on Ebay but most of the auctions state they are now recommended for single mounts as a rider board.
