Can anyone recomend a decently priced pair of floor board for a 2012 rss se5?
I just put the rivco boards on my 2012 RS and I like them so far.
I also have the Rivco floorboards and really like the look and feel of them. The price will be about $320 for the set.
thanx for the info
Here are the boards & road pegs on mine... I love them
I put rivco on mine too. They're heavy built. My bike already had highway pegs on it that were using the front chassis mount bolts so I had to cobble :D
I have the larger brake pad on my bike, would these floorboards fit with them
I have the bigger brake bad on my RS. It works with the boards but it hangs over the board quite a bit. It makes it hard to use the center of the board because your foot is under the brake. I'm saving up to get the hand brake so I can put the small pad back on and open up more space. I usually end up with my foot on the outside edge of the board. Once I get the hand brake ill put the small pad back on and use the hand brake as the primary brake. That way I only have to find the foot brake in an emergency. I took a picture but the system keeps saying they are invalid. I'll post it later if I can figure out the problem
thanks, I am saving for hand brake as well.. maybe we can get a 2 for one deal..lol..
Be careful of trapping your foot under the brake pedal with the handbrake installed. The pedal still has to move and if you have your paw underneath it when you grab the handbrake.... could be bad. You'd have quickly and conscientiously release the brake, move your foot and grab the brakes again
In my opinion the Rivco boards are a cloned Harley floor board and dont fit the style of the roadster i have the ISCI boards which look much better and work better with the extended brake pedal they made all the difference in the world as far as comfort just the right drop to hit the brakes.

You might want to take a look at sealfloorboards.com Gallery Page for some great looking RS's with Seals. The brake is actually mover 2" forward so your legs can be stretched out when braking. No Modification of your bike required and you don't have to lift your foot off the brake to stop, just rotate on the ball of your foot and brake with your heel. It's a very smooth and natural movement.
A bunch of very happy new Seal Riders here at Spyders in the Redwoods!
Ride in comfort,

:dg2:I have a 2012 RSS SE5 and I hate to sound uninformed but will the RIVCO floorboards work on it?
I had them on my 2010 RSS SE5 and had no problems.
Thanks so much. I believe I order a set today. I appreciate the information.
I am the new Rivco rep for spyderlovers if anyone has any questions :D
I love those. Can you tell me where to get them? They look great on your bike. I am ordering the Revco highway pegs, but really love the web floor boards!
