    Anybody running these drop down floorboards?

    I am thinking of getting these (in black):

    http://store.valueaccessories.net/Pr...F6BGL1800.aspx

    Anyone running them? Any issues with them; having more propensity to scrape?

    Any issues with shifting due to the 3/4" drop? I'm not too concerned about the rear brake pedal; I can adjust (drop) that if necessary...

    Yes, I have them in black, I like them a lot, they have multiple adjustments for the perfect fit. I would like to get them as passenger boards also.

    First thing I added to my bike after arriving home from purchasing the bike.

    Like them better than the pegs as well as the 3/4" drop.

    I have these in black as well. Just off a 4000 mile ride. Very comfortable. Had some minor scraping going up Pikes Peak (10 MPH decreasing radius turns .... to the right .... uphill).

    VPAccessories.com makes a set of acrylic scuff plates which stick quite nicely to the underside of the running boards. Click on their GL1800 accessories and scroll down 'till you find them. About $6.00.
    It's a motorcycle!!!!! It's Supposed to have wind!!!!

    They do not work for passenger. The geometry does not allow the board to fold correctly. I love the driver boards.

    They do work, I have them as my passenger pegs. They do fold up, enough to "click", but they are at an odd angle but it doesn't cause a problem for me.

    A pic would help people decide. Yes they will fold and click but they look unhealthy.
