Has anyone out there put them on the 1200RT? If so, do they scrape in the corners? Was a brake and shifter modification required?

Thanks.

Got 'em, love 'em, easy install, don't scrape in the corners, shifter and brake mods are recommended but not required. Thats all. SLEDMAN

Thanks, they sound great. It says the board is 9" long. How much of that is in front of the old peg position so you can stretch your legs out more.

Thanks.

Not intended as a hijack of the thread, but a closely related topic... What about Illium Sport Floorboards for the Passenger?

Any one install these or ANY floorboard for the passenger?

I have floorboards on my LT, and scrape them up constantly, to the point that I have backed off of aggressive riding. Now, I have a RT in addition, and wondering if the floor-
boards will scrape. It kinda gets in your head about possibly raising the back wheel, and dont want that... Any comments about RT floorboards I appreciate.

I have the brake/shifter enlarged versions and really like them for bigger boots and positive feel. Floorboards I feel would hamper boot placement as I move mine around quite a lot depending on the road I am riding.

I also have them. I think they're terrific. They don't scrape for me when I do parking lot maneuvers, but I suppose if you can really (really) lay your RT over in the corners, it might be possible.

I moved the shifter and the brake. Shifter is easy. Brake a little more complex as you'll need to adjust the plunger link for the rear break.

I like them for the range they let me move my feet. I can put my heels on the front of the floorboard and stretch out when I travel, or put my toes on the back of the floorboard when I play on the curves.

One of the best aftermarket products I've purchased.
