Hello Fellas
I would like to know if there is any difference in foot room between the half moon and traditional shape floor boards. I have the half moon on my Heritage and I'm looking for a little more foot room.
Thanks.

Get a set of floorboard extenders if you want more comfort.

Here's a tip: title your thread with what your question/topic is (ie. footboard extenders or something like that). You will get a lot more people to view it and help you out.

I have the highway bar that runs across the front lower part of the bike, it's a Harley product and I find that gives me tons of added room and I can place my feet in many different positions. When I hit that ground hog he bent it but a new one will be on before spring along with the rear Lindby bar, I'm told it will work with these pipes but that I will have to remove my rear running boards, which I'm not to crazy about but I guess these bars can also be used as feet rest. I also ride Solo 99% of the time so its not really a factor other than changing the looks of it.

Anyone with a rear Lindby bar, please chime in and a pic is always nice too.

Interesting, I swapped the standard floorboards on my '14 FatBoy for the Half Moon style that came on the Slim. Really didn't see a difference. Maybe extenders is what you need

Other than when I added the cams, my first best mod:, I'll say the second best mod was when I added the fully Adjustable HD Foot pegs to my Nostalgia engine guards for extra room to move your feet around and a bunch of positions to change to for Comfort..
You wont believe till you try them.
My son put them on his St Glide 2 yrs earlier and told me how good they were..

I didn't really believe they would make much diff.... "Well" -- I WAS WRONG...

At 65, sometimes on days that I'd ride 8hrs or so, my knees and hips would brother me.
After adding the Hi-Way peg I no long have any pain as before I put them on.
Totally better now..
