The MOCO took a giant step BACKWARDS on this deal I think!

That's not how the MOFOCO works. If they see that people are tweaking something, they take away the ability to adjust it then sell you an optional kit.

What exactly do the floorboard extensions do?

The extensions will move your boards out towards the side 1" for extra leg room and comfort. I essence it would be considered the same as lowering them a small amount. Read some reviews on the subject if you are interested.

Thanks - I'll do a search on the reviews. Sounds like I'd really have them scraped off if that is the case.

No problem. I hate when I get a new part for my bike and people don't tell me what kind of possible effects it might have on the way the bike rides.

Yeah I have to agree, sounds like they took a major step backwards here.

I have an 06 Road Glide. Can anyone tell me how to adjust the angle of my floorboards?
Thanks in advance

DISREGARD. I found a thread on this topic.

Laughing, I think you're right! There's a whole lot of "upgrade" parts that are there just to fix a problem.
