I too have them, the problem is that I now scrape the floorboards in tight turns. Can't live without them though.

I went to buy my extensions from Soos, because I had read about him on here and done so before Harley Goodies appeared on the forum. I was getting ready to leave on a trip and as I am wont to do, I waited till the last minute. Well Soos was on vacation or at a rally or something and couldn't ship them in time. So I ordered from the new guy, Harley Goodies, still using them. I won't knock either one, or recommend either one. They are both forum sponsors, so the best advice I could give is, flip a coin, you won't go wrong either way.

Harley Goodies for great customer service. I had a low side and broke the right side bolts, sent me a new set at no charge.

The Harley Goodies love in continues, I have them along with extended pans. I'm 1" out and 1" forward....much better.

Who knew 1" would make such a difference.

Yes they will work.....and continue to work on future models until the MOCO changes the floorboard bolt pattern or frame mount.

Like many small companies, they don't "redo" all of their marketing material for every year change.

With the posts about the new drag angle, I'm I right that these would not be recommended for slow speed "motor officer" -type maneuvering? It sounds like these will really increase your turning radius, no?

Only if YOU let it. The extra inch isn't going to make enough of a difference one way or another. If you are close enough to scrape the boards with the extensions, you will scrape without them too.

Go to one of those Police Bike Rodeos. They are scraping their boards for the whole demonstration. The boards will move and fold all the way up if necessary.

I wouldn't let that stop you from getting them.
