Default Streamliner Boards Swap??

I have an 08 Road Glide and have a friend with a 06 Street Glide. He has changed his FootBoards and he is willing to sale me his Streamliner Boards and pegs. I really love the look of them and everything would match. I know I would need to buy the pans since they are the swept and not the "D" shape. I can get the new black ones for about $70.

My questions is before I do this, are the swept boards actually smaller than the "D" shape boards or are they just shaped differently? I am a big guy and wear a 13 or 14 shoe and all ready have plans to move the boards 2" forward and maybe out and add the E-Z Brake, and longer shift arms.

If anyone could take some measurements of their swept pans that would be great.

Thank you.

They are smaller. So much smaller I swapped them out and bought the Kury ISO boards for front and back. LOTS of room to move around and comfy too

Yup, the swept are smaller. I am taking them off my new SG just for that reason - with a 11.5 foot I feel really cramped with the swept wing.

Thanks guys, any other openions or measurments?
When I look online at the new black pans the swept and the traditional D's look about the same size but just different shape.
I am really getting a good deal on the whole Streamliner set and really like the looks plus a really do not like any of the other D shape inserts that the MoCo offers accept the Billet and they are crazy expensive.
Hopefully this weekend I will be able to get one of the Streamliner inserts and set them on my D boards and compair.

If your buddy is switching from the swept to the d-shaped, you should just get the pans and everything from him - the pans for the swept will be of no use to him.

It's a Harley, Dude. It's always more about looks than function.

He just has the inserts, brake cover, and the rear passenger pegs and mounts which I also want because I rearly have a passenger. He is still using the pans due to when he bought the bike the owner changed everything to the Stealth collection which still uses the swept pans. I was planning on just buying the new black swept pans for them which run ~$70, the shift pegs and another set of the pegs for my highway mounts.
