I've got the 1" spacers on a EGC and have not had any problem finding the shifter. If you find that it is a problem, you can get a 3/4" or 1" long chromed spacer and a longer stainless steel bolt from McMaster-Carr.

I have the 1 inch from Harley Goodies on my 09 SG. Very comfortable and no problem with shifter or brake. I agree that I have never scraped floorboards and do not see a reason to, but hey, I'm still learning.

I have an 08 with the 1" and I do scrap every once in a while. I really like the 1" mod and the scraping is no big deal to me. It does not happen very often.

I just ordered the 1" from SOOS, and he shipped the out the same day (gotta' love that service!). I thought about getting the 3/4", as I ride more aggressively some times, but I couldn't see the extra 1/4" making that much difference. Hope I'm not wrong!

I went with the 1" on my Ultra and love them. Have plenty of room to
move the dogs around. Also much easier to rest my heels on the boards and ***** of my feet on the pegs.

Had two sets of 3/4", then a 1" set and went with 3/4" on my 09. I liked the 3/4" on the 08 and earlier but kinda wish I had gone with the 1" on the 09. But the 3/4" work fine. Height has zero to do with it. It is a matter how much you like to kick your feet out to the sides and stretch your legs .
