Funny you say this, I chewed up my shins pushing the bike backwards the first few times with those new floorboards

No problems after adjusting a bit, but it sucked at first!

And I don't doubt it one bit.

Here's what I did to my Softail today: pretty sure I broke the transmission. Was shifting from 4th to 5th and the heel/toe shift levers just felt like they weren't connect to anything and are just moving freely. Cannot shift at all. It was a no-name Ultima overdrive 6 that I got installed for $900 about 6 years ago. Any recommendations on a replacement if that's what I'm faced with? I really need an OD-6, and my motor pumps out 120 hp & tq. Not sure I can swallow the $3k for the Baker.

Go for the Baker. If you were closer to stock HP maybe a cheaper option would fit the bill.

I put some BossBags #38's on the bike. Now I can carry even more stuff around or pack in 76 cans of beer.
