Does anyone know if the new 2013 RT floorboards will fit on older RTs, and if we'll be able to buy them if they do?
They are listed as an accessory on the Can-am Spyder website ($999.99) but don't know if it will work on the older models. Just have to wait and see when the catalog comes out.
Yes they will work with all year SE models, not SM.They are listed as an accessory on the Can-am Spyder website ($999.99) but don't know if it will work on the older models. Just have to wait and see when the catalog comes out.
They DO look nice... But for $1000; I'm pretty darn happy with my ISCIs... :thumbup:

One of the reasons they are so pricey is because they have a safety feature that no other board has. If for some reason you do not achieve full brake pressure at a stop and the peddle needs to travel below the floor boards to stop the board will release in the front and will allow the brake peddle to be pushed below where the board was fixed. A simple push on the back of the board will lock the board back in place.
Do they install with no drilling required??

My floor boards have no such issues...
you have plenty of room above the board for the brake to function properly...
and my floor boards allow you to keep the existing 'pegs' so that you have two positions for your feet...
on long easy rides, my feet are on the boards... in the 'twistees' or in traffic i'm on the pegs....

i'm current building a 'plug' so i can build a 'tool' so i can start producing these in numbers... they will be fiber-glass and will anchor to the chassic... i'm 256 lbs, and i can stand on these without any problems... my current 'boards' have a 3/4" box-steel-chassic, so i'll need to TEST the fiber-glass prior to making any statements about their capacity... BIG BIRD & i have had these on now for almost 2 years, and both being old timers, with bad hips, they are a great piece of equipment to have...
