FLOORBOARD OR PEG HOTFOOT ?

[RBS66]

For those of us experiencing right hot foot: do you have floorboards or pegs? I was just wondering if maybe it's the floorboards making your foot hotter. Because I have an RT and I don't experience a lot of right foot heat but my wife as the passenger has experienced right calf heat. Most of my heat seems to be coming from the glovebox area. After a ride pop the seat and the backbone of the bike is very hot to the touch even sounds like the gas is boiling. Our rides have been all under two hours.

i have the floorboards and find it very hot and today i ran into a member here with the boards and he said it doesn't really bother him. so who knows, my bike runs very hot

I have both

I have both and I am not bothered by heat, I just move my foot to a different
location
Love my RIVCO stuff.

I have ridden with both and there's not a lot of difference except with the boards, you can easily move your foot around to find a cooler spot.

I have Seal Deluxe and lots of room to move my feet around. They got hot on the pegs.

I have Seal Pup Floorboards, Spyderpops Cat Shield, and SpyderKool passenger board plugs. The wife no longer complains about right foot/calf heat.
