RE: floorboards
what year is it? Im sure that a softail with floorboards of the same year would be a direct bolt on to yours. I know people with 07-08 fatboys are now switching to forward controls from 07-08 softail customs/night trains etc, so im sure it would be the same the other way around. Im actually thinking of doing this if i can find someone willing to swap or a set for a good price.

Floorboards are more comfortable...I'll never go back to pegs on my long distance bike.

Pegs with stirrups isn't to bad though. When I added stirrups to my forward controls on my standard it was a heck of alot more comfortable.

RE: floorboards
I consider my floor boards very comfortable. Since you are starting from scratch, you might want to consider the 2" longer boards. Some of the members on here posted about switching from the standard length to the longer boards. It gives you a bit more room to move your feet back and forth. My 2005 SE Fat Boy comes stockwith the longer boards
