Forward Controls
I want to remove the floorboards from my 2004 FLSTF and put the HD extended forward controls on it. Does anyone have any experience at all with it (good or bad) ? I would appreciate any help with this. I will be ordering this from Iraq and want to have all my parts at home waiting for me upon my return. Thanks.

RE: Forward Controls
I have not put on the forward controls you are talking about, but I did put on an extended brake arm and shift lever. It made the bike much more comfortable and I think it looks cool too. If the forward controls are anything like having extended levers then I think you will like the conversion.

I think we all consider looks as well as practicality when adding accessories. I am 6'3" so I think that it will give me a bit more leg room as well as looking pretty good in my eyes. Not too many Fatboys out there that have forward controls.

Küryakyn makes a kit just for what you want to do. See it here:

From what I understand, most people do it for leg room, and/or better lean angles.
