Default Adjustable Passenger Floorboards

Does anyone know of any kits to make the passenger floorboards adjustable? The only thing I can find is the Harley part 50768-07 which is chrome. I am looking for black.

I've been looking for a while too. Harley used to, and still might make a kit that is taller, the bracket that is, and reduces the reach for the passenger. It's black like the stock ones, just taller. I can't use it cause of the Rinehart TD's. Kuryakyn also makes a peg that swivels above the board, giving an extra foot spot, as does North County Customs I believe, but theirs doesn't swivel. They're chrome, but I've seen em in powdercoat and anodized finishes too. Tyhe only one I can use is the Kuryakyn, and I have to buy an additional bracket to get it to work with the true duals.

Are you looking for more adjustment than is already on the stock mounting bracket? I just removed the plastic hole plug above the stock setting to raise the board.

Reduced Reach Passenger Footboard Mounting Kit - 50789-99A

My GF is 5' 1"....and I put this kit on my FLHT. She said it made all the difference. It took me about 20 mins to switch the floorboards over and mount.

We're going on a cross country trip and I bought a couple of bags to mount on the fron guards, one has the water bottle, the other just a pouch for a bit more storage. the wife says the back of her legs are against them and wants to move forward some. Not sure if going up would do the trick or not.

The HD adjustable passenger fb bracket is ok. I borrowed a friends to try for my wife-she is 5' 1". Then borrowed the kuryakyn to see which she liked. She said the kury was much better. The reason being the HD units are in 1 place even if they are adjustable or not. The kuryakyn are additional and has 3 positions that can be adjusted to quickly. So when riding the passenger has more choices to move their legs for comfort. Just like cruise pegs for the driver. You can raise the factory fb easily.
Just a thought.
