Default Floor Boards

Id like to put floor boards on my blackline fxs. I know that slim boards would fit and I'm also hearing that newer fatboy boards will fit too. But theyre both kinda hard to find on ebay and such. Has anyone had luck in using universal? I'm kinda skeptical of using universal tho.

There's as many people remove the footboards from the FatBoy Lo and Slim models to replace with forward controls as there are fellas like you wanting to put on the footboards.
Your side stand fits the footboard support on the left, no modification.

I've seen them for sale a number of times on ebay, much cheaper than you'd buy them new. My Slim S has forwards now.
Sit tight, there'll be a set out there. Someone might read this thread and offer a swap.

Like you I'm looking at adding floorboards on my scoot as well and yes its slim pickins on ebay. When a proper setup shows up it gets grabbed quickly.

Are you searching CL on the regular? I found a complete set there but it was for 99 and earlier.

Point is you need to be persistent, right place right time, to get your parts. Its that or deep pockets. Keep at it and they will find you.

i am not sure what years in specific fit the black line bikes but i swapped out my forwards on my 2007 night train with a set of boards off a 2013 slim. i am sure lots of years will fit and all you need is the brackets, boards, and brake lever. unless you want heal toe shifting then you will need the longer shift linkage.

yea I look around and even found a set on ebay for 300. a guy on my blackline facebook page scooped em up. they were off a newer fatboy. so I guess my questions is will the fat boys fit? he hasn't had time to install them so he doesn't know. I just wanted to see if anyone knew any specifics. thanks everyone

Perfect, your FXS will have board business fitting like a glove.

UPDATE:
The set you purchased on ebay will fit without any mdification.
No need to disconnect your rear master cylinder with the slotted bracket.
Winner, well done that man!
