Default Floor board question

Waiting impatiently for my new Ultra my wife asked if the rear floorboards were adjustable and if they are how much? are the fronts adjustable also?

The rears are height adjustable but nothing on the front without bracket changes.

both are adjustable, only by a couple of inches.... there are 3 levels on the passenger boards..if that does not work, there is an expensive kit I think it is 349.00 that is adjustable on the fly, the regualer setup you need to remove a bolt on each side and move to the level you like..

Both can be moved up and down a few inches. My wife is vertically challenged so I moved her's up. Mine are all the way down and I also added a spacer kit to move them out 3/4".

I just raised my passenger floorboards to the top hole. My 5'2" wife likes the position a lot better now. My bike had rubberplugs in the top hole that I popped out with a screwdriver--no problem. Since I'm 6'3", I installed the HD floorboards that are extended about 2" forward. That, along with the EZ Brake mademade a huge difference in my posture.

If you need more adjustment on the rear, there is floor board brackets that are offset up. My wife is only 5' tall and needed these to be comfortable. I got mine in black and I think they were about 75 bucks.

My wife is about 5'1" so I installed the HD adjustable passenger floorboard mounts (pictured below). Easy to adjust with a allen socket that I keep in the tool pouch.

Default RE: Floor board question

Has anyone seen anything for children to put their feet on? My daughter is almost 48 inches and the only place for her feet are on the bars in front of the bags...has anyone seen anything that can attach to the bars by the bags for kids to put their feet on?

The HD dealer told me to put some 4X4 blocks of wood on the passenger floor boards for her feet...still not high enough...plus I would never want that look on my bike.
