Hey guys, I picked up a set of these Cobra floor boards. The previous owner thought they had come off of a Valk, but when I looked at them closer, they don't match what the current passenger Cobra boards and the mounting bracket look like on their website. I believe they are passenger boards, but the width of the mounting block is too large to fit the passenger foot peg slot. Any idea what these are from? Or what they fit?  |

I have a set of Cobra passenger mounting brackets and they don't look like that. I don't have the floorboards anymore and would love to get rid of these if you're interested. Not sure they would work with those boards judging by the picture. If interested I have them listed on the Classifieds.

Without dimensions, hard too tell, but they look right for riders pegs.
By rider I mean the bikes rider, not passenger.

Those look like driver's boards, not passenger's. Cobra had to use a smaller passenger floorboard for the driver's position on Valks because the valve covers leave little room (and require center controls).
If the underside outside edges are ground down any (from road contact), they are definitely driver's boards; as far as I know passenger boards cannot make road contact (without dumping, and even then, probably).
I have driver's Cobra boards on both my Valks, but no passenger boards. And I think the Cobra passenger boards for Valk are actually bigger than the driver's boards (but I'm only going by pictures and memory).
It's been many years since I mounted mine, so I cannot remember if there were any particular bike-specific mount pieces (like Kuryakyn uses) for mount to Valk driver's peg position..... but I don't think there were (their website should answer that).

That is where I started.... I pulled the passenger peg off and tried this bracket. It is about 2 mm too big. The foot peg mount is very stout and not likely to move for these to fit. |
