HarleyGoodies Floorboard Extension Review Thread For Softails.
#52
Okay, time for me to respond here as well. I have run Harley Goodies floorboard extensions on my ride for nearly 3 years. They arrived in one day ( I live close)and were a breeze to put on. the instructions were extremely detailed and offered a quick and full version for people to use.
I could never imagine riding without these. They increase my comfort ad infinitum. Everyone I know who runs them love them as well. I forgot to mention I had to call Tom for something and he answered the phone late at night and answered all my questions on the spot.
He is a pleasure to do business with and is the standard of quality customer service as well. Hats off and a big thank you to Harley Goodies!

I purchased a set for my Street Glide and my wife's Heritage. i find them to be comfortable and i actually don't need pegs on my engine guard. It allows me to stretch out more and and also i don't have to hug the air cleaner with my leg. My wife is having difficulty getting to her side stand so i might install an extension for her. We both love them....

I have just installed this kit from Custom Chrome
I did not need to use the Arms, here is my initial take in couple of hours.
Ups :
Super Comfortable, once you get used to it.
Installation was 20 minutes super simple.
No need to use the extension arms, fits perfectly fine with my controls.
Clears the fron the brakes and shifting is fine.
Downs :
Gotta get used to the look , but the Ovals are cool.
I may lose some ground clearence while cornering it is a bit out of my original pegs.
It does not 'fold' easily like other pegs.
Photos shortly

Got a pair for Father's Day. Initially my wife ordered but forgot to mention hdforums. She sent an email and they gave her the discount.
I installed them on my Fat Boy the day I got them. Took about 20-30 minutes and I do these things pretty slow.
Went for a ride and was really pleased with the new feel. My Kuryakyn Hi-Five A/C really sticks out. I use to have to keep my right foot half off my floorboard but now my leg is comfortably around it and on the floorboard. Plus, I'm tall and these just give me a more comfortable riding position in general.

HarleyGoodies extensions are a must
I ordered mine on Monday and had them on Friday. Not bad clear across the country.
I took about 20 minutes to install them since I had a bit of surface rust under the boards and wanted to take some time with a brass wheel and some extend rust treatment to stop that right there.
Simple install, great instructions and WAY MORE COMFORTABLE POSITION for riding. I moved my highway pegs down a bit on my front bars and leave my heels on the floorboards and toes on the highway pegs. Nice and comfortable and I don't have to search when I pull my feet back to the boards to get to the controls, just a nice easy slide back onto the boards and back on the controls.
If there is a negative, it would be that the stock shifter pegs are a bit short now. I will use it as yet another opportunity to customize the scoot with a couple of hours on the lathe with some billet stock. New longer pegs should make this one of the best, first, mods I've ever made on any of my rides.
I still may move my boards and controls a bit more forward, but for now, this has made a huge improvement. Thanks again HarleyGoodies. Well Done.

I ordered on a Friday night and had them on Monday afternoon. Quick emails, invoice emailed and the item is wonderful. I tried to win for about a month, but couldn't wait anymore, seems like someone was posting the greatness of the product every week....so I ordered mine. I'll keep trying to win a pair so I can give to someone. I had knee surgery last year and after a few hours of riding, the knee was a bit stiff. The extensions made my knees feel comfortable and pain free. The vendor is great, the price is very reasonable, instructions are clear and its simple to install. Thanks Harley Goodies!
