Has anyone came up with an idea for some titanium draggers for our foot boards?

Titanium can be a pain in the @$$ to work with.
Sparks can you say liability problems what ever works.
Personally I would be more interested in something that I can count on not sliding out once I get that far over in a corner.
Lost my heat shield within two weeks of buying my Deluxe (part of the problem was the clamp placement).
Sheared those babies off quick as ....
When I hear the scraping I know I am almost there (getting used to this bikes limits).
I hate it when the back tire starts to slide out...
What you need is a puck that mounts on the under side of the board to protect the board and not loose traction.
It's good that the board folds up on corners...

It wouldn't be hard to affix a bolt to the bottom of the board and have a screw on puck that can be changed when it wears out.

Sparks are cool, dry grass along the roadside on fire, not so cool.

Yes something that would fit any Harley with footboards, easy to replace, easy to bolt on.

Your floorboard extension are easy to install, and low cost. Did I say I like sparks.
