Default 2013 slimbob forwards
Looking to mod my Slimbob and one of those mods is to move/change the forward controls. I want to move the 2"further forward but have found no one who sells them yet. Any one help?

Ah. Thank ya!

Have fun movin your Slim controls forward without boards. Should look great. I do think the Ness kit will work, actually. But never tried it myself.
