I can also slide my feet forward until just my heels are on the boards and my toes are resting on the engine guards. I need to take them on a long-ish ride (4 hours or so) to test them out before our Colorado trip later this summer.

For reference...a cobbled-together before / after image:

Yeah, never had them before, but for this seating position, for any real distance, there's no contest, for me anyway.

Maybe a contest on price,though. These were $190 from Revzilla...that included boards and adapters.

These were my first choice a couple months ago...but the adapters were out of stock, and I really wanted to get away from the pegs, so I tried the Joker Machine minis.

Well, after my back order being extended another month, I received my on Wednesday. Finally had a chance to install them today. Only got in a short test ride, but I'm very happy with the results. Really glad I went this route. Thanks again Belloc for the parts list! Made the order and installation simple.

Did the stock brake pedal work with the boards?

Is this possible on a '95 FXST frame aswell? I put the aftermarket floorboards but without the dogbones adapters, but still they are a bit to high.
second, I have the rearbrake cilinder with the seperated reservoir (behind the oilfilter), so, I guess a Heritage likeable brakepedal will not fit, because the "lip" (don't know the right name) is upwards on the pedal and with my FXST brakepedal is downwards, so, I have to replace my rear breakcilinder aswell?
Is there any possibility (without welding) to put the FLHS mounting plates on it?

Just saw this thread...


We make Adjustable, full size floorboards to fit the Sport Glide. No need to spend all the $ or work on retrofitting. They can be installed in less than 30 minutes.

Floorboards HERE.

M8 Adapters HERE.

Thanks Kevin, they looks great, but a bit like Donald Duck feet, to wide from the frame, OW I know, it's just my opinion and nothing bads about your floorboards
