Just wondering if any Glide owners had seen or installed these "larger" than stock running boards, and perhaps what they thought for both function and looks ? Pics would be appreciated if there are any out there, but more interested to hear feedback. Thanks in advance and apologies for any confusion created by my earlier post/RFI.Rider Running Boards


Stretching your legs and moving your feet during a long ride relieves muscle tension and reduces rider fatigue. At 4" longer (1" in front, 3" in back) and ˝" wider than the Original Equipment rider footboards, these ergonomically-friendly running boards provide plenty of space for the rider to reposition their feet for maximum comfort. When used in conjunction with available Extended Brake and Shift Levers, the long legged rider will have even more room to stretch out on long rides. The easy-to-install kit includes left and right footboard pans with vibration-isolated inserts that are styled to complement the Crested Bar & Shield controls collection, or most other chrome and rubber collections.

I think ok for the long legged riders. But us short guys will be banging the s#*t out of our shins!

Already catch hell in the calf from OL's flooboards when backing up!

 

That is a very valid point.

 

Usually when you want more room you need it up front and out to the side. These have only 1" in front and the rest is to the rear. I do like the way they look but I think floorboard extensions would work better if you're looking for that comfort zone.
