#163055 Gram (Admin) Been there, wrecked that. Admin Posts: 4326 Help - need a pass floorboard measurement 3 Years, 3 Months ago   I am installing a new set of VERY large saddlebags on my project bike. They literally fill the space from the rear most point of a folded up rear passenger peg very nearly all the way to the end of my rear fender. I know my wife is going to want rear floorboards soon, so want to make sure when I install them that I locate them far enough to the rear that I won't end up remounting them when that time comes. If someone has rear floorboards and a few moments got a quick measure for me, I would really appreciate getting a measurement of the distance from the middle of the top rear peg mount bolt to the farthest rear point of the floorboard. Thanks in Advance for any help.

I know my cobra's on a previous bike were smaller, so if I had measurements on a set of Yamaha's that would be great   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #163064 ultrastar (User) Keep The Speedometer Side Up Platinum Boarder Posts: 2937 Re:Help - need a pass floorboard measurement 3 Years, 3 Months ago   My rear floorboards are 8" long and from the senter of the rear bolt is 4" to the rear end of the floorboard hope this helps Gram   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/02/13 20:37 By ultrastar.   Keep The Speedometer Side Up http://s366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/ultrastar1/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #163065 ultrastar (User) Keep The Speedometer Side Up Platinum Boarder Posts: 2937 Re:Help - need a pass floorboard measurement 3 Years, 3 Months ago   My wife is 4'9' so I had to make the braket for the rear floorboards to bring them up so if you need something made up let me know and I'll make you a set of brakets. I make the out of .187 thick SST and polish them they do look good   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/02/13 20:53 By ultrastar.   Keep The Speedometer Side Up http://s366.photobucket.com/albums/oo105/ultrastar1/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #163076 CoachDan (User) I'm Mechanically Inclined, I Screw Up Everything.

I have the Kuryakyn passenger Iso-boards. I don't have them bolted on right now, kinda in the middle of a couple mods myself, but holding them up to the mounting point, it's 4 7/8" from the center of rear bolt hole on bike, to the rear of Kury floorboard. I've also run them flipped down and forward, with the Kury boards run backwards (keeps them off pipes). Allows my wife to stretch out a little more. They are approx 3 3/4" from bolt hole to rear of floorboard in this position. I may have to run them in this position after my new bags, guards, and guard bags are finished. edit: Forgot, the Kury boards are 9" X 4 1/2".   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/02/13 22:34 By CoachDan.   CoachDans Bikes   The administrator has disabled public write access. #163095 Gram (Admin) Been there, wrecked that. Admin Posts: 4326 Re:Help - need a pass floorboard measurement 3 Years, 3 Months ago   Thanks Guys!! Just got back from dinner with some friends. I will just plan on the longest measure here. That should get me clear of them when the time comes.

BTW,...I recently fitted the Yami floorboards and as I've just refit the stock system I wasn't 100% happy on how close they were to the pipes so made my own mounts. They turned out pretty good.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
