Oh, no! You mean some people wear shoes or boots? That's kinda weird. Personally, I prefer going barefoot!

Posts: 244 Fargo, ND | They do get a little scratched from your feet after awhile, but I love mine. Had them on for 2 years now, and still look very nice. And since they're mounted on the floorboard, not the frame, if the bike tips or the floorboards touch down in a corner, they move up with the board and don't scrape.
They don't hit if the bike goes over. I tested mine. |

Posts: 880 Orlando, FL | nohawg, glad to hear the scratches are negligible. I would love to have something similar, but something with a rubber foot rest. Hmmmmm. Perhaps another custom thing to put opn my list. Yea, it's on my list. |

Posts: 244 Fargo, ND | I guarantee your feet will reach them. I don't hook my heels on them like some taller riders may be able to do, but I don't find that comfortable anyway. It lets you stretch a lot farther than the plain floorboards though. They're great! By the way, Rollin', the controls move forward and back...not the boards themselves. |

| They look and work great. Had Tr-City install them when I was there 2 years ago. The floorboard moves up and they go with it if you need to use the tip over for whatever reason. Tri-City always builds nice stuff. The chrome is top quality and holds up really well. The first time the sun reflects off it you know what I mean. O.O |
