Thanks!

I don't think there will be an issue. I went to jp cycles and v/h websites to see and they only show the bike with a passenger peg. Might want to see if someone has them with a floorboard or contact v/h directly and ask.

Yes my wife and I do. I just put the floor boards on today. I'm getting the VH Short shots tomorrow. Had to order online since it's illegal to ship to California. I called VH direct and they couldn't tell me if they'll fit. I thinking the floor boards will be above the short shots. I hope they fit

Question for you - I see the plate on the fender, but did you HAVE to relocate it for the LH side bag to fit? Got any pictures from the LH side?

thanks!

No bags.


I may have the mounts powder coated so that they blend in better when running without the bags. The bags come off in a flash but the mounts take to much effort to remove and reinstall.

This is not my bike - it belongs to another member on a Facebook page for Slims, and I got the owner's permission to link to these pics.

You gotta see this... this is a masterpiece...
