Default floorboards for Dyna

I have forward controls on my FXDC & I'm looking to replace my pegs with floorboards. I DON'T want the whole floorboard kit, like the $400 one from HD that uses both mounts and changes the brake and shifter controls.

What I am looking for is a full floorboard that is adjustable that will mount right where the pegs currently are without any other mods.

I've seen some poeple with pics of their Dynas on here with this setup, so I know there are some options out there, I'm just not having any luck finding what I'm looking for.

Any suggestions with part # from anyone?

I started with the Kuryakyn 7906.


This was my first attempt in my quest for long leg comfort (four years ago). This set-up was simply Kuryakyn's passenger boards, (Part #7906).
I left the mid control peg on for an alternative foot position. This was very comfortable, however I kept wishing it was one piece between the forward mount
point and the mid mount point.





I had seen Kuryakyn's Road King driver boards (part #7905), and feeling that they would fill that area from forwards to mid, however the list price of $300
made me reluctant to buy, knowing I would probably have to cannibalize to the point as to make it hard to resale if I wasn't successful.


I went on a campaign to search e-Bay once a week, hoping for a deal. Well a few months ago I found a set that were takeoffs and got them for $75.00, Had to
go for it.




I contemplated several mounting scenarios, but in the end, sometimes simple is best. For the front I just needed to tap the board so as to allow the extended
Iso peg mount bolt to fit thru.



After removing the 7905's mounting bolts, next were the 4 smaller bolts used to hold the rubber pads in place.


Then removing rubber pads, revealing that the 7905, like the smaller 7906, is a one piece aluminum block, very solid.


Then using the original mounting hole as guides, drill press thru the edge.


Then beveled for the bolt head.


After reinstalling rubber pads, inserted bolt, which will be tightened into Kuryakyns 2" adjustable peg extenders (part #8838)


Lucked out on the rear as the board is already tapped, just had to fab a plate, drill a hole, and bend 45ş. This was to be tightened into Kuryakyns 4"
adjustable peg extenders. (part #8839).


Then simply tighten things up..


And there ya are...........


As a final note I redid the rear mount, There were 2 things about it that bothered me.
First with this set-up the boards were too rigid, no play or upswing break away. Even tho in my case the crash bars will scrap long before the boards do.

Second , with the 4" adjustable extension, it raised the back of the boards just slightly and felt like my feet were sloping down a touch. I could have
raised the front, but liked it where it was..
I got another set of the 2" extensions, and put a rubber cap on them, letting the boards just rest on top of the extensions. This brought the rear down, and
allows for a breakaway. I'm very pleased.......

Default Kuryakyn ISO Boards

I went with the Kuryakyn ISO Boards (part # 7916). Had them on for 2 years and love them. I can adjust the angle of the Boards to whatever I choose. The adapters tend to loosen up over time so I tighten them about every 4-6 months.

Since they mount where the forward pegs go, they allow me to stretch out more than if I had true floorboards. They do push you out about an inch (which at first seemed odd, however, since I have the Big Sucker II and a bottle opener on my horn cover, I need the extra inch so I don't rub my inner thighs).

Here are some pics:

I know this would bring the footboard back 2" but that would be fine in my case.
