Lowering/Relocating Floorboards
I am 6'5" and am looking to make my 98 Electra Glide more comfortable to ride. I found Kuryakin relocator brackets that move them 1"out and 1" forward. Are there any kits to also lower the floorboards? Anyone other tall guys have experience doing this?
Thanks
Dave

I would think long and hard before I lowered floor boards on a bike. I scrape a lot at the stock level. I can't imagine relocating them closer to the ground. I'm 6'4" and they work fine for me just being 3/4 out from stock.

On my Fat Boy, just switching out the stock boards, to a flat, one piece aftermarket floorboard without the ISO unit, made a huge difference. We are only talking about an inch difference, but for me, that inch made ALL the difference. I am actively searching out similar floorboards for my Road King right now.

Nopetrol thanks for the link that is what I was looking for. I also see they are compatible with the Kuryakin brackets.
I hear what the rest of you are saying about scraping, I was concerned that might be a problem. I think I will start with the Kuryakin brackets first and see how that goes before lowering them.
Bikerlaw I never thought about ditching the Rubber ISO pads, that would make some difference also, every little bit adds up.
