Installed half moons and really like them. Noticed you are selling half moons - guess you did not like them... lol

I liked them, but they were gloss black and didn't have the contrast I am going for. The Chrome and rubber inserts fit better I think.

They look much better IMO, good choice. Get an extended brake pedal on there to so that you can use that floorboard, the stock pedal doesnt allow you to make use of a lot of the floorboard

Check out Walterts Work Shop, Kuryakyn, HD or EZ Brake for pedals

Not a fan of the diamond plate either, but then again, my bike is blacked out (sorta). I really like the half moons that are standard on the FBL, but I can see how they would not look good on a standard chromed out Fat Boy. Are the Deluxe boards shakers too? I can't remember. Either way, they look much better than the diamond plate IMHO.

Either way works. For MOCO boards they all have a similar style to me.

I like the stock boards because you can change the inserts when you want a change and it won't cost a fortune. There are quite a few styles as well.
