I wanted to put passenger boards on my '02 Fat Boy. But I have the chrome inserts on the frame and the chrome swing arm nut cover. The directions stated that I couldn't use the boards without removing those items.

I just installed them on my fat boy with out any issues. I also have the chrome swing arm pivot covers and the chrome frame inserts. There is no need to remove them.

What is that little dark square on the left side of your air cleaner? Is that just a reflection or what? I am talking about in this picture.

Damn this floorboard package is more confusing than doing engine work!
Let me see if I have this straight.
I need to purchase the Kit, and covers and relo kit?
On the kit you got(50602-00) it says the kit includes footboards,pads and mounting hardware.
Was the only part you bought extra for that the Relocation Kit?
The part I am looking at 50357-04 looks like it needs insert and supports sold seperatly and I guess the relo kit.

The minimum with my setup would have been the floorboard kit, saddlebag relocation kit, and covers. Yes it comes with pads, but I wanted the nostalgic pads to match the rest of my bike.

Like fatheaddon says, there sure seems to be a lot of parts to the kit! When I thought that I had everything off of the shelf for the install (according to the packaging), the guy at the counter kept slapping parts on the counter and telling me that I needed this, that and the other thing to complete the job. I told them to forget it and walked out.

amazed that I had to drill the holes for the covers though.

Yeah, I could not believe I had to drill the darn things when I installed mine. Like anybody is going to run just those crappy looking cast aluminum boards with no covers. Although, drilling the holes would add another manufacturing process, & knowing HD, would probably add another 50 or 60 bucks to an already overpriced product.[sm=smiley35.gif] That’s an 05 right; the bags look to be in great shape. My HSC is an 05 & the bags have sagged like an old ladies….um, well uh, never mind…they have really sagged. Again, good job, looks great!
