Default Floorboard Extensions

I like to ride with my heels on the front on my floorboards. Are floorboard extensions worth the money. I don't think I have ever seen any on a bike. Maybe they're not noticable. Anyone here ride with 'em? I have highway pegs, so I'm just wondering outloud.

I have them and I love em!

There are other posts about them on here and everyone seems to love em, that's how I found out about em. They're easy to install, and get your feet away from the bike a bit for a more comfortable ride.

I bought them from Harley Goodies, and got great service.

There are two types of "extensions". Extended forward (towards the front). And extended out (away from the bike). I only have forward extension and love 'em. I have only heard good things about both.

Me too. Not sure about Fatboy but on my FLSTC the inch out was not enough. I had to remove the extensions in order to fit Mark IVs then I got what I wanted, a place to put my heels.

Forward looks good. How far forward did they move? Only problem I can see would be my highway pegs. My son designed them and they bolt onto the bottom of the floorboards. They may hit the front fender.
Anyways thanks for the input.

I did both... got the Harley Goodies extensions, then got the HD "Touring" extended floorboards. the Goodies moved the floorboards out about an inch and a half, the HD floorboards moved forward about 2 inches...... I have the Mark IIIs also.
