Lamonster's RIP Floor Boards: Real-World Experiences?

[newbert]

Having just attended Spyderquest, I saw a number of Spyders with Lamonster's RIP Floorboards. All of the owners seem to like them a lot, so now I'm giving them some thought as well. Before deciding whether to go for them, I'd appreciate hearing some real-world feedback from those of you who replaced your stock pegs with them (particularly on an F3, but I'd like to hear about other models as well). Specifically:

1. What was your specific problem or issue with stock pegs that you hoped the RIP floorboards would address? And how well (or not) did the floorboards address those issues?

2. Did you install the RIP boards yourself? How difficult was it? (I am generally NOT a DIYer.)

3. Or did you have your CanAm dealer (or someone else do the installation for you)?

4. Finally, would anyone know how much higher or lower your feet are (compared to stock pegs) when you put your foot in roughly the same position on the RIP board as your foot was on the peg?

Any real-world experiences which address some of these questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Here's a response for the F3-L, Newbert......albeit for moving from OEM boards, not pegs. Not exactly what you were after, but there may be something you can take out of it.

1).... I needed more room for big feet and a changed foot angle for easier access to the brake pedal. They definitely addressed those issues.
2).....installed myself....pretty simple with basic tools. (and a basic brain)
3).....see 2 above.
4).....can't answer this as I was replacing stock boards, not pegs...however the length of the board means you can move your feet to pretty much any position you want
