They are really all the same and are all about $40.

I bought mine from Eastern Performance, they were those and they weren't the Kury ones............but they serve the purpose and move the floorboards out 3/4".

Soos here on the HDForum makes and sells them also, he has a post going in the classified section.

I think they are all about the same.
I bought mine from Kury and glad I have them on my ultra.

You can also simply use washers and longer bolts...a couple of bucks at the hardware store. A touch of flat black paint and they will disappear.

The spacers really don't have that much in the way of engineering involved other that getting decent replacement bolts with the kit. I put 'em on my bike and wouldn't be without them now. Heck my heels are barely on the boards with the spacers installed. I'd go with the best price you can find.

Wouldn't this just make the boards drag easier? Heck, I scrape mine enough as it is....

What is the "benefit" of this? Why is it better, if you don't need ot for exhaust clearence?

I'm not asking smartazz questions, I just don't "get it".... [&:]

I have the Kury's on my Ultra.At 70+ mph I had to fight to keep my heels on the floorboards.With the extensions I just relax while riding at higher speeds.Would not be without them.Never scrapped the boards YET!
