Pro Pad Floorboard Extension Install?
Just received my package from Dr V-Twin, and there is no install instructions. I imagine it's quite easy, but just in case, could anyone give me a play by play?

That wasn't intended. I tried calling, but they weren't open. It's not at all Dr Vtwins fault they were great. The packaging just didn't have instructions. It's Xmas eve and I'm just hoping to install them today, and thought I'd ask the forum. Not a big deal.

Yep. Easy as that.
Tip: loosen front and rear mounts first, then take them the rest of the way off. Sometimes they spin otherwise.

If you are running an '08 or earlier bike, the right rear mount can be a real pain. What I did was put the allen wrench on the bolt head and spun it off by turning the bracket. Trying to turn the allen wrench with the limited amount of space is a major hassle. Also, mount up your left footboard first, then when you do the right side look at the footboards from the front (with bike as level as possible) and you can gauge how much to adjust the right board brackets so it is even with the left in angle. On both sides front brackets sometimes you may get a vibration noise at idle. What I did was slightly rotate the brackets forward to put a slight bind on the footboard mount bolt so it would not rattle.
