The BEST ones; will be the ones that you buy, after careful consideration of the pros and cons of what's available out there...
Sorry... it's always got to be your money; your choiice!

with the suggestions that you should make plans to come to Spyderfest and check out all the bikes with floorboards and the vendors that will be their. Nothing like an informed decision and you can probably ryde home after the event with a new farkle!

I will give you my opinion only as I believe that the ISCI floorboards are superior with HGH quality billit aluminum and mounting hardware, check out the website sight sponcer.

How tall are you? That could make a difference.
You always have the BRP floorboards since you have a 2013. They have a "Breakaway" feature where the board will actually tilt forward if you have to use too much brake.
Seals are big. they give plenty of room to move around, and one model will actually replace the need for highway pegs.
Isci are basic.
Both seals and Isci will bolt on to your existing foot pegs (I believe), so if you have long legs, it may still be an issue. My legs were long enough so that seals really couldn't get my knees in a position to ride comfortably for long periods.
Rivcos replace the pegs, and drop the floorboards down about 1-2 inches. They do allow me to get my knees into a comfortable position (for me). I used to use my highway pegs quite a bit, now I find I don't need to use them as much.
It is best to find an event, or gathering, and try some different options out though...

Love my Seal DLX and they make them for a SM5

Thanks. I'm 5' 11" and I do have a problem with them being low enough. Will check out Seal @ Rivcos.

Are the Web boards low enough to let you stretch your legs?

Well they are the same height as the original foot pegs, but they are strong enough to put your feet up on top where they bend up in the front, much like a highway peg if you want to stretch out.

I am going to spyder fest next month. Will check them all out. Tks .

The best floorboards belong to me and I made them from 1/4 inch thick aluminum diamond plate. They are exclusive and nothing like them. I put the most love in making them.

Web Boards will have both the original long floorboards as well as a new mini board that fit the SM 5 model 2013... see you at spyderfest
