I received my floorboards today and immediately set to work installing them. I took my time, and it took me about an hour an a half. Installation was pretty painless, and I was able to get them both installed without as much as chipping the paint off of my fingernails. My only complaint is the instructions are a bit confusing on the brake side, with a lot of extra stuff that really didn't matter. I was able to get the new brake pedal slid onto the shaft with the aid of some liquid dish detergent. I would also like to comment that the installation video is highly lacking. He quickly shows the installation of the shift side, but fails to demonstrate installation of the brake side, which IMO is much more difficult. After installation, I ended up with an extra deployment hook and bolts, plus an extra heel pedal for the shifter. I'm not sure if this is a mistake in packaging or what. I took her for a test ride right after installation, and found the heel/toe shifting to be very natural, the position of the boards very comfortable. I'm 5'8" with size 11 (woman's) feet, and found the positioning to be quite comfortable. I do have the Kuryakyn highway pegs, so I'm able to stretch my legs when on the open road. I've read all the reviews, and can understand why the big guys with the big feet (and big socks, LOL) might find this configuration uncomfortable. Pam |
| Easy to install, took about 40 minutes, Comes with good instructions, A good investment. |
| This extender does not come down as far as some others,but it does the job of keeping most of the road debris off the front cowling. It looks sharp and the chrome top with the black rubber bottom make it stand out. |
| Fear not once you get the seat off and figure out the pictures the install is easy. The instructions are confusing because the diagram is not labeled front and back but once you figure this out install is very easy. no problem cutting seat just be sure you have a long pointed knife. |
| As fender extensions seem to be a cause of problems for some, this mid-length flexible unit fits the bill for me. It saves a lot of road crap damaging the lower front cowl. |

I think the best backrest on the market as it doesn't foul the pillions leg position. Very comfortable increasing ride length, but I do find that with light air-mesh type jackets that your backplate liner wants to work upward on (our) bumpy roads. So, I have to get my pillion to push it back down my back periodically or it engages the rear lower edge of my helmet, making head inclination thwarted. |

Fitted the (AO) predecessor in '08, and when cleaning up the bike for trade-in noticed all the rust spots. A nice rack if it didn't rust ! |
| Installed these on my 2010 Wing with 25,000 miles on it.If you ride your bike on mountain roads these are a must. Superior damping, increased ground clearance, and enhanced stability make my Goldwing feel like it just lost 300 lbs. Came back from a 250 mile test ride with a huge grin on my face. Definitely worth the price and easy to install. I also installed new fork seal kit from Wingstuff while I was at it. Best 400 dollars you can spend on your bike. |
| After 2 or 3 years, the chrome started peeling off. I now need to decide if I'm going to replace them with the same ones or just re-install the original footpegs. I have 2 goldwings, one with and one without the floorboards. On aggressive rides, with a lot of cornering, I prefer without the floorboards. The floorboards limits your cornering abilities. Regardless, I do prefer riding with the floorboards as it is more comfortable when cruising. Too bad the quality of the chroming isn't very good. Not sure on Kyryaken's policy regarding replacing defective product after warranty period? |
| I just put it on my 2008 pearl white Goldwing this weekend. I Also installed TailBlazer Rear Spoiler Brake & Running Light Modulator (K125LEDD). The installation went okay. The only thing I would recommend is to go out and purchase the size drill bits they recommend in the insulation instructions. The final bit I did go a 1/32†smaller which worked okay except for the wire hole I went with the size they recommended. The normal drill bit sets do not have the drill size they recommend. I used the template that was in the instructions but I notice they almost aligned up with the marks on the trunk (within 1/64 of an inch on two of them), so I used the marks. The marks worked great. I started with the small drill bit first from the underside of the trunk. When I went to the next larges drill bit, I tried drilling from the top side and it chipped the paint. Tape may have help but I didn’t try it. I did the remainder of the drilling from the underside of the trunk. The paint matched perfectly! |
| My wife and I just finished a 3300 hundred mile ride and she loves them. My wife is around 5'7" or 8" tall and it gives her extra leg position for them long days of riding, and they look GREAT. Greet product!!! |
| I recently installed the Progressive Suspension Monotube kit on a Honda 2002 GL1800 Wing, pretty straight foward install if you have rebuild the GL1800 forks before. One thing I ran into was on the re-assemble of the left fork , the damper rod allen retainer bolt does not want to tighten as normal,with the stock damper rod you can hold the rod with a tapered shaft inside the damper rod from the top,or use fork spring pressure to press against the damper rod to hold the damper rod in place. Because the Progressive assembly has no access to the damper rod from the top the damper rod trys to spin while torqueing the bolt to the proper spec, something I am going to look in to. After the install I went for a test drive, what I felt over the stock ride was more travel than before with more control,but a bit harsh, I used the recommended 1 pre-load shim. I am going to put at least 1000 miles on the set up before I fully judge the ride. I have been installing Progressive suspension products for over 25 years and most springs and dampeners some time to settle in. If the ride does not soften some then I might remove the pre-load shims for a softer ride, it's nice that is an option. |
