Default Forward & out extensions...?

I've got to move my floorboards(95 heritage) forward due to being 6'2 and I want to move them out also for more comfort. After that I will install a longer shifter and brake pedal. I'm leaving on a 2k road trip in July and need to complete this by then. Due to my work schedule I have not had the time to do a lot of research so help me out guys.

I've read some about Harleygoodies. Is there a kit for both mods? All suggestions welcome. Thanks for the info and post a pick if ya got it.

Harley Goodies is great. 1.25" out to the sides. Most people find this is more than enough room for them, but if you still want to go forward too there are other methods as well like the Harley extended floorboard pans.

I did both on my Fatboy. First, the Harley Goodies. Awesome! Then I kicked 'em forward with the 2" extensions. Completely comfortable now and I'm 6'4". Go for it, you won't regret it!

Good post. I was also wondering the same for my fat boy. I am 6 feet tall and find my feet hanging off the front of the pans.

I've got the floorboard extensions, EZ brake and some older model Kury(I think) road pegs that mount under the floor board.
They work perfect for me (I'm 6'4"). I usually ride with my heel on the floorboard and the rest of my foot on the road peg. For highway riding, you can put your whole foot on the peg, or stretch your leg out over the peg.
Works for me!

Here is a pic of the extra space I have with my Harley Goodies.
I have X Bones floorboard brackets as well which give a bit more room out to the sides.
