I just realized that I have the Harley Goodies floorboard extensions as well which move the boards out the the sides 1.25" but i also have the Cross Bones kickstand which is 1" shorter. I think it's about $90 or so.

I've seen references to those floorboard extensions and am going to read up on them in a few... do they help with leg cramping? I'm almost 5' 8" and my legs constantly cramp on my Deluxe.

Where are you legs cramping and what seat are you running?

I just whacked mine with a rubber mallet to give it the clearance needed.

You can get them here. Money back guarantee! I have been running them for years and could not imagine not having them now.

Lower legs cramp as soon as I lift them up on the floorboards. I usually have to stretch them out a couple of times when I first start riding.

Running a stock seat. I also have a new CC seat I haven't tried yet.

Ordered them this afternoon. Would be nice if this worked out. My husband thinks I will have to spread my legs out further now when we stop. Probably so but 1 1/4" would not bother me with my height, I will still be able to flat foot stops.

Here's hoping it helps with the side stand.
