Your answer is in your posting. You typed .com and the link shows .net. Very different to a computer.
You have to call them to order the floorboards and I never did get connected with them. I found a used pair for sale and bought them. They improve the leg position quite a bit but you can get you toes tangled in the bodywork in front of them. Just something to be aware of.

I'm still debating on getting rid of my SFB floorboards. The footpeg seems to sit a little bit higher than the stock ones which seems to make a difference for my legs. I also wish there was more room for my size 13s between the shifter and floorboard. Is there anyway to move the shifter higher?

and you thought ISCI's floorboards were expensive…. you could probably buy a well loved Spyder for the price of those….

Ah! Thank you... but in all fairness. Click their logo on any page (To the left of the yellow RS). That is where it takes me as well!

By SFB I assume you are not referring to Seal FloorBoards. We are very much alive and wll at sealfloorboards.com and a lot less $ and a lot bigger than other floorboards.

NO I am not referring to your company as demonstrated by my links above...
I am not interested in your fine product because it sits to high. I do not like my knees bent at that high of a degree all the time when riding. It cuts my ride time drastically. And yes I know some like them and are very happy with them. That is great for them. But these will not ever work out for me. Thank you.

You've peaked my curiosity. I am thinking of purchasing b/c I do not want my knees flexed (all the time) as much as they are on the stock pegs. I thought that we these floorboards that I would just slide my feet forward to flex my knees less.

I designed a set of floorboards with a heal toe shifter maybe you saw them in the Smokies. Rivco (www.rivcoproducts.com ) in Burlington Wis. is now making them they even have a stub foot peg included. I think the price is only $499.

Yes, most shift levers are held in place with a pinch bolt. I am pretty sure the Spyder has this set up, but I have not had the need to change the position of mine so I am not 100% sure. Loosen the pinch bolt, pull the shifter off the shaft, move the shifter to the desired position and tighten the pinch bolt. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the confusion, I'm not familiar with SFB. And your right, no product is right for everyone. We all know what works and what doesn't. I think it's more a matter of preference than size. 8 Legged Freak is 6'6" and is very comfortable on his Seal FloorBoards. I'm sure there is someone 5'6" tall out there who would find them not suited for him/her. Thank God for choices.

I wish there were more pics of this product being used by someone much taller, because right now it definitely looks like people with longer legs and a stock saddle will have their knees constantly bent at and awkward angle because of how high the floorboards sit.

Not sure if this will help you or not... But I went to my garage and found a thin flat board and marked where the upward bend would start... Then got another thin board to make the incline resemble that in the pics... This helped me decide.
Additionally if you look at the pics for pretty much any product you can see where they stop. So for the SFB ones from the link I provided in the first post you can see they are pretty close to the bottom loop. From this I found a box that would meet this level after I sit in the seat. This gave me first hand feeling as to "About" what the floorboards would put my knees in...

8 Legged Freak is 6'6" tall and a big man to boot. He might be able to speak to the comfort factor of his Seal FloorBoards. He is shown on his RT on the Gallery Page of my website.

He could speak to the comfort of it for him, but with the varying degrees of what constitutes comfort for people, it would just be good to be able to see some pics of a long legged person on an RS to get an idea of the angle. As posted above, I'm sure it can be easily simulated though....when all this snow disappears.

Very nice i dont know if these were available when i bought my isci floorboards i think you might like some highway pegs also that way you could stretch out on the long rides. I must say i use the highway pegs more than the boards themselves. By the way that color is alot better outside than when i saw it at the ims.
