John,
Reason the bags are in great shape is because it's an '06 with only 9 miles on it. Picked it up Jan 13 and been sitting in the garage since then.

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.

So what exactly did you have to get for the complete install? The dealer that I visited said that they couldn't be installed with the inserts and pivot nut cover, and I think he got that from the paperwork with the parts.
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.

I have read that all you "might" have to do is grind down the back of the bracket a little and it will fit.

The parts used were as follows:

Softail Passenger Footboard Kit 50602-89B
Passenger Footboard Insert 50190-98
Passenger Footboard Covers 50246-00

 

I just purchased the pass floorboards for my heritage. Have a question that I hope you can answer. After installing the Saddlebag Relocation Kit and the floorboard bracket, did you mount the bracket of the relocation kit behind the bike frame or between the floorboard bracket and bike frame?

 

Looks good Sarge..... Nice taste!!!!!lol

 

Hey Softbutt
Where did you get the luggage rack? Nice, I like it. I want one...
John

 

Its the Harley luggage rack! Ordered from Jen at Benjys HD..... 20% off!!!!

 

Talk about bringing back the dead...

 

well, i own a 05 fatboy with lowered vance and hines exhaust. so i started searching for floorboards for my flstfi. to my surprise, you cannot buy chrome support kits for flstfi. and since i lowered my exhaust, the black support kits for the flstfi will not work now.
i purchaced the chrome heritage support kits and they worked perfectly.
so keep in mind all fatboy owners with changed exhaust. the flstfi floorboard kit will not work for you, use the chrome heritage ones instead.
this advice beats trying 2 sets like i had to because the parts counter people didnt know forsure.

Hey Jwiz,

I have a 04 Fat Boy with V&H Big Shot Staggered Exhaust. I looking for passenger floorboards also. Apparently there is a special HD mount for the Fat Boy vs the Heritage. Did you check out the Fat Boy mounts with your pipes?

Thanks
