Hey 1600gtl riders have you installed floor boards to replace the small pegs? :bmw:

I'm sure that its a matter of what you're used to, but I've never liked floorboards. I've only had two motorcycles that had them (HD and a Kawasaki), and I didn't like them. Just doesn't seem to me that they'd be a good match for the GTL anyway.

I've rode a few K1200LT with them & they are ALWAYS in the way. To put my feet down I had to go in front or behind the boards. Either way It made holding up the bike a real pain. Now my passengers all loved the rear floorboards as they could move their feet around.

Like you I don't want rider floor boards but my passanger (bride) misses having them. Where did you get passanger floorboards for the K1600?

Nice looking boards Stepheg. Can you tell us who made them and what the cost?

I bought the Kuryakyn black ribbed floorboards (list 140 I paid slightly less, don't remember the exact amount) and a splined adapter mount for 25.00. I then took some measurements drew up a mount and sent it to a local machinist who modified the adapter mount, and welded it to the mount he made from my drawings. I had the mount made of stainless. I was charged 85.00 for the mounts and welding. I like the boards because they are black and have 5 different mounting positions, but most of all my wife is happy.

get some nice teak 1x4's, put a finish on them and attach them to your foot pets with some mineralac straps. done deal for cheap.

I got a set of prototype boards from Illium.
