I had the Baker Air Wings installed at Spyderfest, and did the parking lot install of the ISCI floorboards during the trip.
Baker Air Wings: Finally got the chance to take an extended ride on the RT when the temperature was between 80 and 90 F. The air wings performed as advertised and definitely managed the air flow and heat reduction claims they make on their website. They are easy to adjust on the fly and I can see how I will appreciate this mod more during even hotter summer driving.
ISCI Floorboards: I found the stock pegs were just not working for me on longish trips. My hip joints would start to ache after a few hours and the old hockey knees put up the odd complaint as well. I removed the left side foot peg a few months back to try and simulate the optimum leg angle and foot position that I would require to get that "comfy" feeling. My crude tests told me that bringing the level of my foot down a bit and angling it forward would work best for me. This is what lead me to purchase the ISCI floorboards.
After installing the ISCI floorboards and playing a bit with the tilt of the floorboard I have found the optimum comfort zone for my riding style. I mounted the unit on the lowest height setting with the board angled a couple of notches downwards on the toe. I should mention that you need to raise your foot to apply the foot brake, but it did not take me long to become comfortable with this manoeuvre.
As you can probably tell, I am pleased with these products.:2thumbs:
