Floorboards too close?
 \\; Hey I am a newbie to HDF and to Harley as well. I own ( the bank and I ) an 08 Heritage Softail that I dearly love...My question is that the floorboards seem too close to the bike for my legs, I have also seen the extentions on here, is the the way or is there a better DIYer solution for me?
Thanks

After installing my Mustang seat, I no longer feel like the boards are to close to the bike. The seat lets your thighs come closer to the tank in a more natural position without forcing you to sit bowlegged to keep your feet planted on the boards.
