Default I placed DK Customs rider floorboard extension and a Kuryakyn brake pedal pad.

Hello, I installed the DK Customs Rider Floorboard extensions. It moves the floorboards outward by 1 inch. Item #: DK-SFT-M8-FLB-EXT


Images from DK Customs.

Kuryakyn makes a similar 3/4 inch kit but they do not have the part for the shifter.
It would put a slight angle on the shifter rod without the shifter spacer.
That is why I went with the DK Customs kit.
Please note: That even if you purchase either kits, the 4 Torx bolts were a huge pain to remove. We used an impact driver to prevent stripping the Torx head.

Image by Grainger.

I drove around and it was a more comfortable position for my feet.
I had to move my foot inward to use the foot brake.
My knee started to ache from pigeon toeing the brake.
I started looking into brake pedal pads. It was a cheaper option vs. a new brake pedal.
I found a Kuryakyn pad. Amazon states that it does not fit, but Kuryakyn site states that it does fit. Part number 4311.




Notice the difference.




The stock brake pedal pad has a locking system so cutting it off was a lot easier than twist, pull and nothing.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for your time,
Lboy06.

It’s a Tourmaster bag with the Harley backrest and luggage rack, added the Harley pad for a driver backrest. I bought some heavy duty velcro straps to secure around the rear fender support, the Tourmaster has an adjustable rear mount the attaches to the passenger backrest.

These are the stock detachable bags that match the Deluxe seat. I didn’t think they were any bigger than the stock Heritage bags, but since you asked, I checked the website. They’re 460 cu in larger. I had no idea.

Man can you confirm the difference is the hump inward that the factory heritage bags have on the fender side? I'm so annoyed by how the factory bags interior on the heritage are designed with that hump into the bag severely limiting capacity. Thanks.

Sorry, but I can't compare them to anything till the spring because my bike is in storage. I pulled the cubic inch measurements from the H-D website and compared the Quick Detach bags I bought to the Rigid Mount bags (Part Number: 90201558) that look similar to the Heritage bags. Looks like they pick up a few cubic inches just in the shape.

Ad, after you removed the factory mounting bracket back there, did you find a way to mount the tail end of the stock header pipes to the frame to hold up their weight so that there is more than just the head bolt connection holding up the pipes?
