Kinda on the same subject. My wife is short and complains a bit about her legs hitting the hard bags, bugging her. I've looked around e-bay and a couple sites, but can't seem to find any kind of passenger floorboard re-locaters. Has any1 heard of such a thing, and if so, where could I get a pair. Thx...Redd

 

You are right they are ugly, but the floor boards can be move out about 3/4 " and a tall seat can be added to give you a little leg room. Also add highway pegs with the large foot rest that way it gives another option.

 

I believe J&P Cycle out of Anamosa Iowa can hook you up. I have their catalog. Give them a shout just look them up on the web.

Also did see something like this on Ebay- http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HARLE...3005QQtcZphoto

 

Thx, I'll try J&p.

 

I think you have exhausted the available benefits from floorboard mods; the best thing for you in my not so humble opinion, is to get a more appropriate saddle.
I'm just 6'0", though all the stock Harley seats are too low for my tatse; the aftermarket ones are really bad in the comfort arena. They all seem to slope backwards and have little padding. I guess most guys feel that they look cool with a really low seat or need to have their feet flat at a stop sign, ?!?, but it's so uncomfortable and harder to control the bike when you sit so low. Look at a Road King cop solo saddle; that's the best position for fine control movements and comfort for long days in the saddle.
I had a custom seat made at Bill Mayer Saddles, in Ojai, CA. I can post a pic if you like. It's a couple inches taller and 'longer' for the rider. It's also wider and relatively flat. The passenger portion is compromised a bit, though I never have anyone back there anyway!
Unbelievable difference in overall comfort. I can't even reach the crash bars with my feet when I sit all the way back. I can move back and forth several inches over th ecourse of an 800 mile day and feel great doing it.
I would suggest getting a taller, longer saddle and your knees will appreciate it!!

 

Different strokes.............

Here's what I did:

Bubba's Brake 2" forward extended billet floorboards
Indy Custom Bikes 1 1/2" forward extended floorboard brackets
Soo's 3/4" outward extension spacers
Corbin Solo seat, moves down 1", back two
Extended brake and shifter levers
Low mounted hwy pegs

My vertically challenged mechanic has to ride my bike sitting on the very rear of the gas tank.

 

I bet the tallboy seat from H-D and some highway pegs on the crashbar would work for ya. I use a Mustang touring seat and some Kuryakin higway pegs which works great for me.[sm=biker2.gif]

 

I'm 6'4" and use my Hwy Pegs like FWD controls (shifting & braking) - I also went with a Corbin (Dual-Tour) which moved me back & down...

 

Thanks to all for the info...
