    Well the 2012 did not come with driver floorboards, only pegs, so any floorboards will be more comfortable or you can get Lamonts NBV highway pegs (NBV = NO BAD VIBES).

    I'm surprised that you are getting vibrations on the passangers floor boards ! Do you get any vibrations on your foot pegs ? Do you get vibrations from the belt ? Some have had trouble with bad or woren motor mounts and some had trouble with the belt at certain RPMs.
    Happy Owner

    I would first check to make sure that everything is nice and tight...
    THAT could be causing the "buzziness"...

    I was having some pretty bad vibration at different rpms. I took it to my dealer and they said it was the belt and tightened it.
