    since my long ride 340ks  which really told me i av 2 make changes 2 make ride easier on my bad leg ,i want 2 do longer rides like wen i was ok so saw some floorboards at J&P cycles usa i buy from that site a lot ,the boards were different than most and solid metal  . board  itself strate one side curve at heel then 3inch along angles bak down 2 say 2inch then curve again an man these r heavy duty metal 1/2 inch thik easy all solid chrome both sides polished with rubber deck in shapes  slitely raised 4 cushioning an fit mount no bits needed ,tryed on bike nah not wide enough argh so look at bits an pieces fittings an stuff found wat i think will fix kuryakin 2 inch by  360  degrese pivot part mounted strate onto footpeg mount first bit then bolted 2 inch piece to that which can full rotate 360 then last piece to that also 360 rotateable now ive got wat i was tryin 2 achieve useing 2inch adjustable lockable offset kuryakin product ,even if u want 2 bring your pegs back an up all is possible useing this part also forward and down has serated adjustment system ive got one board up an bak to suit bad leg an other board different so many varibles can be had and moves board or peg out further on brake side so if u have heavy breather your peg or bord couple inches  further out more relaxed not tryin 2 hold ya leg against breather u can av pegs up higher less chance scrapein ,with brake pedal harder 2 hit coz of breather i got big shifter some cardboard bent out more so can use easier mite even buy longer brake pedal ,all pieces cost about 260 2 door from usa ,floorboards i chose were on special 88buk parts cheap frieght like 43buk but ive been buyin from that site 4 a while gold membership makes cheaper costs 50 buk but if ya buy bits like i do is worth it ,and i did fitment myself which is a strain 4 me coz of leg but is done ,lots more 2 do on bike yet SHINGLES

    Fuck Shingles, I always try to read your posts but have you not heard of a full stop? No offence mate, but they are fucking hard to read.

    I'm not having a go about the content, but just about how hard they are to read...

    Sorry dude...

    It's not a full stop, it's a paragraph here or there, just to break up the big block of text.

    And Shingles, whatever keeps you riding is a good thing. Good to see you found a fix.

    Hey Shingles those boards look shit hot mate. Like to know how they go as far as scraping. I've got a Fatbob too and thought about the boards for mine. What's holding me back is that I scrape the pipes and the peg on the otherside now. Please let me know how she goes in the twists mate.

    no probs in bends scraped a bit on right side but i have multi adjusters 2 inch offset gadjets if u look at piks u will see adjusters they rotate 360 at intervals in serated head ,i can change at peg mount and also at floorboard so i have 2 places 2 change angles ,those adjusters are for rear adjusting but just stuck em on front same thing different place ,never had any issusues with them also they tilt those boards and they are solid steel chromed ,ive taken off now as couldnt find total comfort with bad leg so have gone back 2 round peg made by avon its thick and has grippy soft raised rubber rings on solid steel chromed heavy duty have grips the same seems 2 allow my shoe on bad leg 2 b more comfortable its hard coz i dont have any movement in foot at all no ankle all fused an rodded so foot just relys on shoe to be in happy place also knee been ripped out no cartalige bone on bone have to turn leg at hip also cant feel foot i no its there just dont have certain things that once had ,floorboards for sale and you never see again as not made anymore good quality and not overly big and you can swap over either side so you can hav big end down or narrow end down to eliminate scraping or jus get same atachment bits an you can bring em up an back or forward an tilted hope this helps SHINGLES

    Fuck Shingles,,340 km is not a long ride, I regularly rode from Sydney to Brisbane to hook up with mates & party on my then softail, no floorboards required,,just ride, get there & have fun. Always rode back in one day via the Putty Rd.

    Also your post is hard to read without some form of punctuation,,Alan
