Title: Floorboard questions , Driver & Passenger Post by: Wewaman on January 16, 2016, 09:12:47 AM Hello I posted this on the Tech board.
Hey Everyone I am considering getting some floorboards and I have some questions. Your thoughts and advice are welcome, please give me some. :cooldude: First off I am waiting for a response from a member on a Rattlebars heel-toe shifter, with that being said. Will they work without extra stuff, IE; brackets, lowering kit etc ? Also what are your thoughts on a heel - toe shifter, I have only used one about 10 years ago on my Buddies Ultra Classic. Thanks for your input, Wewa Title: Re: Floorboard questions , Driver & Passenger Post by: Thunderbolt on January 16, 2016, 09:53:08 AM I have Cobra floorboards with Rattlebars heel toe shifter and lowering kit. I had the same setup on the Rocket III and the Tourer before it. Love the heel toe shifter. I have 34" inseam and the lowering kit really helped. Also Showchrome risers helped with the comfort too.

I just saw a post from Ken about an add on heel toe shifter and i have ordered the 1800 shifter like he did and will follow his pictures and instructions. I have the same foot peg as Ken so i will wait and see how it goes when I get it installed. But I like the looks of the Floorboards, so time will tell.
Also would like to get some passenger floorboards for the Wife and kids to enjoy. Tony |
