Put the 3/4" floorboard extensions from Soos on my EGC last night. Great kit, easy install and it's amazing how just 3/4 of an inch can make such a big difference. Thanks Soos!
I put mine on a couple of weeks ago after installing my Rinehart T/Ds. Amazing product!

Soos, watch out we'll be seeingknock offs by *-Glide Goodies or Cycle *agets!

Love mine, just bought two more sets for my friends!

1" kits for me really got my feet on the boards more comfortably

Great product!!

Dumb question here....with the floorboards out 3/4 of an inch, have any of you noticed more floorboard scraping during turns?

It depends on your riding style, I'm not an aggressive rider in turns so I don't worry about it. They come with a warning about scraping.

Does these give long-legged riders a bit more room?

How long does it take to install them?

Any recommendations regarding 3/4 inch versus the one inch kit?

Is there any significant difference between this kit and the similiar kit offered by Harley Goodies (also a HDF sponsor)?

I have the 1" on my Ultra (and had them on my '05 EGC as well). I can scrape the boards a little easier, but it is not a big deal since I am not out canyon carving on the Ultra. The comfort is the factor for me on the bagger and those extensions do make a difference.

I didn't notice any increase in leg room length wise but it is nice to get my feet out away from the frame. To me it feels a lot better.

Took me about half an hour to install them. How long it takes probably depends on your tools and work space.

I got the 3/4 inch from Soos and have been more than happy with them. I can't compare them to the ones from the other vendor as I haven't seen or used theirs. I can say Soos shipped quickly, the materials were first rate and the included instructions were well done. I've been very happy with my Soos kit.
