Just wanted some feed back on the floorboard extensions for the road kings. Are they worth putting on? and what vendor is the best to buy from. Thanks.
I have the floorboard extensions from harleygoodies off of Ebay. They do make a difference on my Road Glide. I have a size 13 boot and the extra space really helps.
Got mine from Soos too. Makes for a more comfortable ride. I will need to get shifter pegs that are a little longer. I sometimes have difficultly "finding" the front peg. Any suggestions on a longer shifter peg.
To be more specific, there are two ways to "extend" the floorboards. The Soos kit extends the floorboards outward, resulting in a more comfortable and natural position. You no longer are hugging the tank and air cleaner. Then there are the kits that push the boards forward. This is great for those of us who are vertically gifted, especially when combined with longer shift and brake levers. Harley has those, as well as Indycustombikes.
