I picked up a set of passenger floorboards from the Wing board for $30, practically brand new. I took them apart, painted everything, reassembled and mounted. I didn't think I'd like them because I am very particular about my bikes but I love the way they look! A very pleasant surprise and the lady is very happy now. Win win! :icon_mrgreen:

I had looked at every option out there for passenger boards and wasn't happy with any of them.....this was the easiest and best looking option IMO. Only took a few hours of work and the best part was the price!!!!

They look great. I have been thinking of getting some for my bike too. I might have to go the same route you did.

That's why I posted the pics. I have been going back and forth with this for a while and I just didn't think I'd like the look of the Wing pegs on my bike. I thought they might look ok but couldn't be sure until I saw them myself. It's silly to pay $200-$300 for the boards out there available for our bikes when this can be done cheap!

I had to do the same thing soon after getting my bike because the oem pegs hurt my wife's knees.... I have the chrome covers sitting on the shelf now for about 9 months,,,still have not put them on....

Did they match up with the existing bracket or did you have to buy those as well?

You remove the F6B bracket and the boards bolt right into the 2 holes directly in the bike. That black adapter plate goes away.

I used Plastidip to see if I liked them or not. Now that I love them they are going to powdercoat.

You don't happen to have the missing bolt spec by any chance, what I am thinking is length and diameter for example 50X8?

Are the same bolts used on the stock pegs and black plate, the same ones used to fasten the Wing boards to the bike?

Great, thanks, what I needed to know. Found someone on the Wing board selling a new set for $50. Just didn't have the bolts for the frame. Love the way these look once painted.
