Forward Controls to Footboards
Has anyone made the switch from forward controls to footboards (Rider Footboard Kit-50500247)?
I think I want to make the change, but I want to make sure that I won't be missing parts - i.e. if any of the original mid control parts would be needed that I no longer have since I've already made the change to forwards.

If already have forwads, then the worst part of the job is done (the taller shift arm is already installed). It's just a simple matter of bolting the forwards on to the bike, attaching the shifter spline, and the rear brake arm.
Maybe you are looking for a set of gently used Dyna rider forward controls at a big discount over new? If so, PM me, I just moved back to forwards from foot boards and I have them in a box.

You could just remove the forward controls if you get this and sell as a complete set.

I have forwards on my '14 Street Bob and was thinking about floorboards but don't they mount to the same place as the forwards??

Yes they mount to the same place and use the mid mount point on the frame also. You would just remove the forward controls, mounts and linkage then install 50500247 dyna rider footboard kit. And you could sell your forward controls.
