I have an 99 interstate with Cobra running boards. Like to go back with foot pegs like OEM. I wear boots when I ride and it is tight fit between running board and shifter same way on foot brake side, any suggestions on a foot peg or a shorter running board? A link would be nice, Thanks

I took the rear peg off the heel toe shifter so I can just smash down on the metal
Works for me the last 20 yrs or so

I've been perfectly happy with the OEM foot pegs for almost 25 years...
I searched, there's a few sets on eBay.
Also, I can't recall the EXACT specifics, but I remember a thing where folks replaced the shifted peg with one from a Honda Blackbird, which gives a little more clearance. I think I did that on my own (Size 13 boot)

Cobra footboards work with boots, size 11, if the shift lever is removed and reinstalled one spline higher. Try it. I didn't readjust the brake pedal as the Kuryakin pedal pad put it in the right place. |

I use the Kury 7963s and love them. You do have to order the Honda adapters.

I replaced the running boards on my Valk when I bought her with the 7063 also. They have worked great for me while putting some 100k. I have size 14 boots. |

What's with all you guys with boats for feet.  I have 8 1/2 wide, and I get around fine (and almost never fall over).  |

(Expensive hard to find boots is the correct answer.) Something about being 5'19" probably enters into the equation as well... |
