Loose Floorboard
My right drivers floorboard leans to the outside on my 2006 Electra Glide. I have tightened the two bolts but it continues to loosen and lean to the outside making me feel that my foot will fall off the running board.
I have tightened the bolts down as far as possible without breaking the bolts and yet this still happens.
Any suggestions what the cause may be and how I should repair this?

look underneath, the floorboard is made to pivot up if the bike leans far.
and you want them to be loose enough to do that ( rather than dig in and take weight off the tires).
push the floorboard up and see if there is room on top of the support arm for a small rubber stick on bumper- that may do it for you.
and check that the support arms are tight too
