Default 2008 Roadking Classic

I just wanted to introduce myself to the H-D Forum. I am the new owner of an '08 Roadking Classic. I have Rinehart true duals, HD Race Tuner, Stage 1 air cleaner, Smoked turn signal lenses, nostalgic saddle bag guards, and a lot more... I can't even remember what all I've installed on it in the last 2 days (I bought the bike new 2 days ago). I've owned other (Jap) bikes in the past, and this is my first Harley. One thing I don't like is the rider floorboards. They are to close to the frame. Is there any kits available to move them out a little? I'm 5'10" and 190lbs... and the floor board position on the left (shifter) side feels like its almost underneath the bike.

Thanks for the warm reception. I live in Arkansas. I'll try to search. Maybe I'll find something good? Thank you.
