Question Passenger floorboards, comfort acc's?

Would like to know what some of you are doing or have done to help with the flat to far back floorboards for your passenger, the wife gets sorta tired real quick, I put it on the lift and sat back there yesterday and I can see why, any suggestions within reason will be greatly appericated.

... Kury has an adjustable peg that gives a couple of different foot positions for the passenger.

This seems to be the norm so far, showed them to wife from Kury's web site and she thinks they will work ok, thanks guy's.
It just doesn't seem like there's not alot out there, HD has some stuff that moves the boards foward and at a tilt but the price is $350, way to much for me.

Even just normal pegs might be better for her. My girl says she would hate to ride with boards cause of how her boots are.

Default Passenger pegs

I have had the kuryakyn adjustable passenger pegs on my last 4 Ultras. The wife swears by them. They give you 2 different positions for the passenger to use besides the boards. They are easy to install. You can find them on Ebay for around $150.00 VS $199.00 list.
Good Luck.

Kury adjustables only way to go, wife is short and she loves the two position she can put her feet plus she can go back to the floorboard if she wants. I am short as well and she has learned to put floorboard up in town so when we come to a stop her boards don't hit the back of my legs. Works for us
