I've got 1" extensions and had no real issues in my hood. If I go to "Tail of Dragon" I go back stock as there easy to pop on & off.

 

Previous owner installed some 1" spacers on the front bolt of the floorboards only. The bike is lowered, running Intiminators in the front forks and Ohlins in the rear. I scrape EASILY and even lifted the rear tire in a few turns, and without saying the edges of the floorboards. Even with hitting the bracket earlier, the chicken strip on the rear tire is maybe an 1/8" from the edge. When I start to scrape the floorboard I slow down now... Went from a CBR600F4i to the Harley 11k miles ago so it's been a transition.

Scraping is normally fine but when the floorboard bracket causes the bike to lift the rear it is an eye opener and with any luck that is all it does.

 

The highest point in Florida is an overpass on 95. Florida is a cruel joke to motorcyclists: year-round riding on roads that'll bore you to death.

I lived in Jacksonville for a year way back when I rode a ZX-6R, and literally the most exciting road I could find was the 20th Street Expressway with that magnificently banked 90 degree corner in the center of town.

I miss the climate, but damn the riding was awful down there.

 

BINGO. That's what I'm looking for.

Thanks SBates08, and everyone else who helped me out here.

Where's that debit card.....

 

I have the Kury 1" forward and 1" out extenders on my RG and have not scraped yet. Since the boards normally scrape at the rear first I don't think you are any more prone to scraping. I do a lot of aggressive canyon riding and am yet to scrape with these on the bike.

 

Thanks HogPro that's exactly what I've been needing to know. Will have these ordered shortly. My Barney Rubbles will appreciate some extra board to sit on.

 

My extenders mount between the board and the bracket so they do not extend the bracket. That said, I used the extenders that I had installed on my Fat Boy, with a slight mod to my brackets. The extenders made specifically for the FL must be different than for the Soft Tail.

 

It all depends on what kind of extender you have. The V-Twin goodies and other brand (can't remember the name) that only move the boards out go between the frame and the floorboard brackets, whereas the Kury ones on my ride go between the bracket and the board.

I had the V Twin Goodies on my softail (those are 1.25") that go between the board and bracket.

 

I can't remember the make that I have as I won them but they are either 3/4 or 1" and then mount between the bike and brackets for the floorboards and extent out only and not forward. I am running stock rear shocks and stock height progressive monotubes. I seem to scrape easier going left than right and ehen I do scrape it is the board hitting and pivoting up.
