|  floor boards and forward controls ? has anybody installed both or these? The forward controls raise the pegs a little ? so floorboards would clear a little better on a lowered bike? considering both of these so i need a little feedback please. Thanks ,Mitch |

  | meier50: I put the John's Kits forward controls kit on my bike, and I use Kuryakyn Switchblade pegs...with the heelrest extended, it sits like a floorboard might, and it seems comfortable to me. I posted some pics in the Members Photo Gallery forum, here's the link to the two groups of pics: http://www.motorcycle-journal.com/fo...4&postcount=24 http://www.motorcycle-journal.com/fo...6&postcount=25 Personally, I think they'd be fine with the smaller floorboards that are M50-specific (I think jpwM50 installed a set on his bike)...

 ...it clears the toe of my Matterhorns, but I regularly ride in a pair of Magnum boots and the toe on them isn't as boxy. Didn't get a real good shot of the new parts John's kit includes though. How much fun did YOU have getting the original cotter pins out of the brake rod?  Sheesh...what a pain the rear one was to get out!
