Default Floorboards for 07 Softail Custom

Hello,

I'm a new owner of a Harley. I bought a 2007 Softail Custom last fall and have been riding this spring. I had a Honda Shadow 1100 that had Cobra floorboards, and I miss the floorboards on the FXSTC. It seems there aren't a lot of choices. Can anyone make any recommendations? I'm thinking about the Kuryakyn 4445 SwitchBlade pegs.

Also, has anyone installed a Kuryakn driver backrest? I haven't taken any trips so I don't know how my back will hold up. But this backrest (I think it's the 8988) looks interesting.

Of course, scratching up the money to buy it is another matter.

Thanks.

The switchblades are a good choice. Mine work great and they let you keep the old school chopper look of the Custom. Go for it.

I can't help you on the backrest, but it is an interesting design. Good luck.

i have the Kury backrest. it really helps on the long rides, takes the strain off your arms as well. i dont think it looks all that good on the bike and i remove it when i dont need it. the pad could be more comfy as well. but it is worth the money for the long trips.
