Pegs instead of floorboards?

@NDBadlands4-2: She tried to sit on a Nightrain, but it was far too long for her. She has short legs, needs something lower and more compact like the slim or fatboy-lo.
@peg20: She felt like with her short legs she couldn't really fit her feet flat on the boards, so it was actually less comfortable. Plus she felt like she had more options for moving her feet around, less constricted with the pegs. She'll be doing some test rides tho.
Thanks for the help everyone!

Great to know, that means our salesman was wrong.

Hey I need some help.... I recently moved up from my sportster custom to a heritage softail classic. I have Vance Hines pipes (sound great). The issues is girl wants me to change the pegs to floor board type. She found a set of Kuryakyn flat boards the fit the softail.. The issue is when the right side is down it hits the pipes. I went to the HD dealer to find an extension. They could not find any unless to I replaced the mounting bracket and to do that they said I need to remove the pipes. This will cost $300. Is there any simple extensions that will fit. I just need to extend them About 1 1/2 inches. Thank you off any help

like said before they make a kit. other option for the night train is to drop the rear an inch. makes seat height the same as the lo or slim.
just my two cents however, having owned both a night train and a fat boy lo don't knock the floor boards just yet. have her give them a chance maybe ride with them for a couple of months or so. I know I wish I had mine back on the long rides.

Yup, you guys don't have to convince *me*... I was already considering them for my sportster, especially if I start doing longer "touring" rides on it. But so far I've been really happy with my forward controls, so I'm not in a big rush to swap out yet.
