They look sharp! I see what you mean about them not matching.

Thanks for posting the pics.

If you go to Paul Yaffe Bagger Nation Web site some of his bikes have the passenger on therre. it appears they are just bigger than the pan but they look the same underneath.

I had a set, and they looked like a sore thumb. They are chrome with the back of the rivets showing as black dots. I put the banana pegs on, and leave them down most of the time. The back looks the same as the boards, but of course much smaller. I also almost threw away the shifter peg. Looks very "throw this together so they will buy the set" to me. I love the boards, but having a trim piece made and painting it body color is next for me.

I like the look of the banana boards but read some other posts that the kickstand has to be put down by hand after installing them. Any problems with yours ?

Actually, my wife does have long legs and can reach the very back of the boards. I doubt she would want to do it for 100 miles or more.

I agree with BadX, it will be way easier finding some matching boards than it would be to train another woman.

I have not experienced any problems with putting the side stand down.
