    Is anyone running those Roadsmith parts? It seems to me that 1" lower and the pegs would scrape pretty easy.

    I am not running the Roadsmith parts, but many of us are using the Kuryakyn mini-drop boards which are 3/4" lower.

    Doing a quick search, both Navvet and adventurous1 have the Roadsmith comfort controls. There maybe others who have them as well.

    If they don't chime in, maybe send them a PM.

    Love the Roadsmith's. Between them and ERGO II's this is the most comfortable bike I have ever had.

    I am shrinking now with age but still 6'-6" with a 36"+ inseam. I use a stock seat with an AirHawk and the peg mods and can go all day long.

    Thanks

    Thanks to everyone
    for all the feedback. Lots of info. I wasn't aware of some of these items, such as dropped floorboards. I delayed buying a B because due to my inseam (34") I was concerned about knee problems. But I am deliriously happy! Saturday, my first day with the scoot, I did 180 miles, most of it flying. I was impressed.
    I am leaning for the Ergo 3 in black; Ultimate King seat. Need to look at those floorboards - Kuryaken and Roadsmith.

    Over time, I plan on pegs, seat, driving lights, possibly floorboards and Heli bars. We are planning a 4000 mile ride this summer, through western US.

    Good looking scoot.

    If you watch FleaBay, you can periodically find fold up floor board takeoffs from Goldwings that will fit the back for your passenger.

    You can also find spare rear rims and tires from Trike build takeoffs so you change your tires at home.

    Thanks. Never heard of FleaBay, but looks like it is worth checking out. My sense is all the things I want to do adds up to about $4000 in parts.
