Thanks for all the feedback! I see, just like in my earlier research, there is a lot of love for the 'boards. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a set, so I will post back with my own opinions once they are installed. I talked to Supertrapp and they confirmed the same pipe will fit on a FLD, so I should be good to go (I assume they have the same mounting points as mine...)
mesquite, how tall are you? I know they add to the "knees-up" riding position, but I think that will be more comfortable at high speeds and long distance. I figure if I don't love them, I could sell them easily.

Lake Shore as well....
Sucks you have had to wait that long. Did they let you know? Hopefully mine won't take as long.

They only let me know that after I sent them an email. I finally sent it after not hearing anything from them for 2 weeks after ordering.

replaced my boards with half moons from a crossbones no more dragging boards I drag brackets now only on the rights and only when riding like a jackass taller shock is great idea cept I like the look of the covered shock
when hauling *** wind catches pant/chaps and makes stepping on the brake harder leg gets caught in the wind
lower fairings erased this problem
no one makes a heel toe
I made mine from softail parts

I'm just 6'1" so not really tall but I sure don't like my knees so high. When I see all the baggers with boards it makes me think I should carefully consider this change. But after a 3 hr ride home with boards I still felt I wanted my legs lower and more forward. I hope I'm happy as I'm spending a lot of cash to move from boards to pegs.

I emailed them again today and they said the backorder was extended until the middle of April but mine made the cut. They should have them at the dealer and ship them to me by the middle of next week. This wait has been killing me!

I'm not sure. They told me they had 3 sets being sent to them, and mine was the oldest order, so I would get one. You might want to send them a similar email.
