I think they look good. Functional good. Last years Drag Spec. Fatbook cover bike was a Bobber with Floorboards. Looked good to me.

I think they look good. Most of the "real" bobbers had boards like that.

Which ones are they and where did you get them? Are they adjustable at all, specifically can you move them towards the rear of the bike? I've been thinking about floorboards before my three day trek to Sturgis.

Well you're right,they're ugly as homemade sin.But still I've been thinking about the same thing. Right now I'm running forward controls with the mid-mount pegs in place for an alternate position on a long run.

Seems like I've seen some on a forum members Dyna that set in much closer to where they didn't stick out too much farther than the outboard ends of the shiftpeg/brake petal. There was a long thread about this one time,maybe I can find it.

Very nice bike.

Good Luck

Tom
