    Default Floorboards and Manual Shift???

    Hi Folks,

    We're trying to help a buddy set up her new-to-her '10 RS; she's long-legged and finding the pegs more cramped every day. We've been reading about the Rivco floorboards, but unsure if it comes with a shifter, or if she needs to buy the heel-toe shifter, too. Anybody tried this outfit? We tried a Google search but seemed to find pictures of automatics. Thanks, we appreciate any suggestions and advice you might offer.

    Default Sadly...

    As the GS,RS,RSS,ST have all been dropped from the line up things are getting harder to find for them. I do know that the Sealboards (sponsor vendor on homepage) has the larger running boards and stock shifter still works. He may have a heel toe shifter as one comes with the RT boards but don't know. There are many boards out there just have to seach them out. You could also go with the highway pegs as an alternate solution....

    Default floor boards

    Rivco still makes floor boards for 2008gs,rs and on up. I have a set on 2009 gs se-5. Well made product. Their installation instructs show a heel toe shiftier available at extra cost(of course). Do a search for Rivco and should popup. $399.99 without shifter.

    Thanks for the replies, everybody!

    yellowperil, are you able to ride your Spyder without any modifications to the factory shifter? If so, that's probably what Tina will try first.

    Dave, I will gladly give you a call, thanks so much.

    Thanks everybody, got the floorboards on the way. We're apt to be stumped by the install, we'll see how it goes and holler back if need be. Thanks again for the help.
