Yes there is. Motorcycles don't have floors, cars do. Footboards are foot sized and mounted on the side of a motorcycle. Floorboards are large flat panels and most have humps in the middle.

I guess all the aftermarket suppliers of Harley FLOORBOARDS are wrong. I'll get them to change their websites immediately.
