Default Foot boards for the OL

So the OL has been on the bike and is happy enough. She says the seat is a bit hard but in all fairness she has only done an hour on the bike. Needs her *cough* 'natural weight' to break it in a bit.
But I am wondering about footboards. Bike is a stock 2015 SGS and just has standard pegs.
Any moans from your OL's regards pegs vs boards? Need to keep them happy?

Mine prefers boards so I have been looking at the Kury's that mount to the peg bracket. Seem to be okay and have some nice adjustments.

I think the passenger floor boards are a "must" if you travel very much at all. That and the back rest is the first thing that went on my SG. Kury has a addition you can add that has an adjustable piece. my wife thinks she may like that for the longer trips.

I bought the $55 jp cycle floorboards. They suck for getting on the bike but if your lady isnt a hefer theyre fine.

Wife prefers the boards on the RK much more than the pegs on the Heritage Softail...

I have them on my FLSTN. They make a big difference for your passenger. Your girl will love them.

My wife prefers floor boards so I posted here in the classifieds for an even trade. My stock SG pegs for their stock floor boards and within a couple days I had what I wanted. Met a fellow member at a rest area on I-95 and swapped them out in the parking lot

Thinking the wife would prefer the boards put a set on the last build. She did not like them at all converted to bike back over to pegs. We have been riding together over 45 years.

Passenger floor boards was one of the first things that I put on my Heritage. They are more comfortable for the passenger and make getting on and off the bike a lot easier too.
