Hey Lo .... Throw some close-up shots of those up if you can. Am thinking I'd like them on my mid-mountswhile keeping my highway pegs out front.

As I said above ... they look cool to me.

If they were shaped like giant bare feet they would be even cooler!

Sure are different.............. At first I thought they were ugly, then I looked in the mirror.......
They look pretty nice, and if they are comfortable, thenthere's thebeauty in them.

Hey Lo...been reading your floorboard post here and was wondering...now that you've had them on for a while, how do you like them? Are they really great and comfy? Do they scrap on your lowered ride easily or do you really gotta lay into them? Are the Shaker boards cushioned for vibration?

I'm really thinking about trying these out on my ride. I'm on the short side at 5'9" and tend to have to hold my feet on my forwards. Were you able to just bolt them right up to the stock forward mounts and use your existing shift/break pedals?


Thanks Man!

CAN YOU GIVE US A CLOSE UP PIC OF WHERE THEY MOUNT.
SO I CAN SEE IF THEY ARE COMPATIBLE WITH MY "CUSTOM CHROME" FORWARD CONTROLS KIT

I thought about them. Might just go with heel rests....to do something , feels like my feet are blowing off the pegs. Damn short legs. Maybe I still need more time to get used to the forward controls.
