Smile What a difference!!!!!!!!!

Installed Soos's 1 inch floorboard extensions last night.It is hard to beleive the difference it makes.Also the quality of the kit is superb.You can't tell anything was installed,everything matches and mounts up like it came from the factory with it.If you are a tall rider,these things make the ride alot more confortable.All I can say is thanks Soos!!!

You will lose a little but only when you have that baby leaned way over.I like the sound of scrapping floorboards

Got em on mine. It is 1" that feels like a dance floor under the boots! Best mod for under $75.00. I did front and back. SO very pleased!
If they are gooing to scrape, I would need to put one hell of a lean angle on the bike. I looked down after the install while on a local twisty and have plenty of space before the floorboards touch the ground.
Enjoy the mod!!

I ordered them from HarleyGoodies this morning.
Question: did you use locktite to install them ? If so, what color ?

I *finally* (actually bought them for my old bike - probably a year and a half ago and never put them on it) put them (3/4"?) on my SG.

It really is unbelievable how such a seemingly tiny mod can do to the comfort level...
