Default 1st ride with SOOS extenders
Installed my SOOS kit Mon. night.Pretty simple install.
I've ridden to work the last couple of days & I'm amazed
at how much more comfortable I am just by installing this
kit.I never realized just how confined my legs were.This
is a real outstanding addition to my bike.Thanks SOOS.

These are on my short list of items to install. Right now I feel like I need a seat pushed back a little. Will the lowered footboards make me feel like I have the same room as if I moved the seat back?

Outward extentions make a big diff. but moving 1" forward is even better, especially if you are long legged.

Love my extenders as well. Got mine from Harley Goodies. Whether you get them from soos or somebody else, they make a big difference in your comfort when riding.
