I'll put a thread in the softail section too, but you can post in this one. So far the guys I ride with want quick release brackets for hardbags for a softail, Under the taillight relocation bracket with a nice curve in it for a heritage, Quick release brackets for a Dyna for saddlebags that are able to be used without relcoating the signals, Bar mounted cigarette lighter, and the list goes on. I gotta write this all down as I cannot remember everything people suggested today.

I would love a chromed curved license plate mount with a lip at the bottom that is big enough for an inspection sticker. The one that North Texas Harley put the license plate on is fuugggly and I haven't found a solution I like yet. You can see it in my sig pic...

Wider Floor Boards Extenders.

I had an 07 Fat Boy that I bought floor board extentions off of you and they hooked up between the bracket and the board and was 1 1/2" wide.

I bought your Touring model and they are only 7/8" wide and fit between the frame and the bracket.

What's up with the difference?????

The reason that the newer brackets are 7/8" is that in order for us to use the same size bolts as Harley to keep tolerances the same that was the size we could make. To make them wider can be done but the parts are much more expensive. We are working on this and will address this issue for you soon. Tolerances for the floorboards are important as they take a lot of stress from the riders feet and we feel that changing these could possibly have a negative effect.

How about a better passenger extended foot pegs for the Ultra Classic that is better than what Kuryakyn has as theirs has a bolt that sometimes work loose and when doing stop and go in traffic the back of my leg hits the footpeg. I tried the one from SoftBrake and I stripped out the bolts that hold the bottom clamp on, I had them tap out and put in bigger bolts, but the one on the right will not tighten up unless I shim up the bottem clamp.

What about some sort of custom piece to fill the 3 holes from the license plate after relocation?
