#73366 woodster (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 90 passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   Greetings. I checked out some old threads, but couldn't find an answer to my question, so I'm afraid I must make a perhaps tedious post. I have an 06 (brand new, leftover model with only 240 miles now) and I want to install passenger floorboards. What are my options? I like Cobra's precise fit and finish and I expect Kuryakyn is good too. Or should I go with Yami's own? It looks like Cobra uses it's own mounting bracket whereas Kury and Yami use an adapter to fit the stock mount. Does this mean I could not do the passenger peg "flip" with the cobras when I change the sound system and get lower pipes? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. woody w   Logged     RED RYDER   The administrator has disabled public write access. #73368 javawave (User) Over 16801 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 3500 Re:passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   The Yami have there own mounting bracket also. You won't use the brackets from the pegs. These can be flipped also if you put on lower pipes. I actually turned mine back over to the orginal postion. The floor boards are big enough you hit the back of your legs when your feet are on the ground or walking the bike.   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/04/02 15:38 By javawave.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #73424 woodster (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 90 Re:passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   So I guess it's just a matter of how much I want to pay. Yami's are quite a bit more than Cobra or Kury. If I plan to put the Kury covers on the driver's boards, then I guess it makes sense to use the Kuryakyn board for passenger. They plug into the peg mount with a spline adapter so you can get some angle on them. Thanks for the reply. Appreciate it.

They are also solid chrome on the underside so they look great when folded up. JPCycles carry them and I'm sure if you checked the Barons site you will find them also. They seemed to be better priced. The yami boards I bought used were the chrome boards and also got the matching driver board covers all for 50 bucks plus shiping, so I made up my mind quick. I didn't want the dull aluminum stocker boards.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73440 javawave (User) Over 16801 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 3500 Re:passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   I got the complete kit including bracket on ebay for 169 bucks. I didnt think that was too bad.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73537 woodster (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 90 Re:passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   thanks very much. I had forgotten about Barons and I had a look at them on their site. They appear to have quite a lot of possibility for adjustment. Will have to spend some time on ebay as well. again, appreciate the info. thanks woody w   Logged     RED RYDER   The administrator has disabled public write access. #73568 StarCruiser06 (User) If you can't be with the one you love... Wait! Gold Boarder Posts: 897 Re:passenger floorboards 9 Months, 1 Week ago   My '06 came with passenger floorboards stock (Silverado). But, If I were to put them on or replace the ones I have now... I would be inclined to go with the Yami bilet chrome... (when they're not in use, I like chrome plate and the visible star logo on the bottom...) But, that's just me... I just don't understand why Yami insists on selling the brackets seperate from a set of passenger boards   Logged     Over 50...? Never miss the oppertunity to pee, never waste an erection...

I shopped around and finally found them in J C Whitney. They were priced for under $50 at the time. Look just as good and mounted to the existing mounts.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
