Floorboards on a Nightrain
I am thinking of putting floorboards on my 06 Nightrain. I have seen some pics on here and they look great and are more comfortable. Has anyone done this and if so did you have to do any custom mods to make them work. It seems to me that stock boards off a tourning bike have 2 mounting points whereas the Nightrain only has the single footpeg mount. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

My Train has boards. I used the 'mini' boards available from J&P and others. They simply replace the pegs. Although they don't have the cushion, or springiness of the big HD boards, they are really comfortable, especially for long rides. They also don't reduce lean clearance, as they are no lower than your pegs. At around $40, they're a cheap way to see if you like it, too!
