He bought a used set off ebay. Wound up selling the foot boards etc and making money on the deal.
That's an interesting thought. Thanks. I gotta say, at this point I kinda dig the floorboards. I've always been a sportbike guy so I'm reveling in the differences.

For me, if I have forward controls I like heel rests with them. Especially on long trips.
