looking for adjustable passenger boards (not pegs)
i've read all the posts about passenger pegs for my ultra
my question --- my lady wants adjustable boards not pegs... any ideas?
-- the stock boars are already adjusted up as high as they go --- i still need another few inches -- lady is 5'0 and I just put a tourpak relocation kit on which moves her back even further
RE: looking for adjustable passenger boards (not pegs)
I picked up the adjustable passenger footboard kit on ebay for about 1/2 the price that was in the catalog for my RK. Not sure if they make them for your ultra. . The wife like them. So if the wifes happy everyone happy.

Or, if you want to save about $200, you can install the Reduced Reach Passenger Footboard Kit. My wife is 4'10". This kit raises the boards up 2 1/4". I re-drilled my TourPak mount, moving it back a bit, so I too had more of a problem with her being able to reach.These mounts are only as adjustable as the original mounts, using the different "adjustment holes". This kit helped immensely, though I'm still thinking of adding the Kuryakyn adjustable passenger footpeg kit too if it will fit on these mounts. Oh, and it says they can't be used with the saddlebag guard bags, but I left mine on. The flap on the bag just rests right against the floorboard, so the flap isn't as easily accessed, but it still works fine.

I have the ones DBCooper is showing you. They are pricey but they work well and look good. My wife still leaves the footboards is the up position and puts her feet on the top edge of them sometimes.

+1 My wife claims to be 5', but I think that is only with heels I put the Harley adjustables on with chrome pans and then some new inserts. Was pricy, but they not only look way better, they keep the wife happy too.
RE: looking for adjustable passenger boards (not pegs)
I also installed the Reduced Reach Floorboard Kit
My GF is 5'-0" and even with the stock boards adjusted as high as possible she still wasn't comfortable
Put on the Reduced Reach Kit and installed in the lowest hole and the boards are 3/4" higher than before
Shes happy so I'm happy
