I did a search but couldn't find any pics of members with floorboards on their bikes.  I'm presently trying to mount a set of passenger floorboards from an 85 gl1200 in a forward and lowered position on my bike.  Just trying to find that perfectly comfortable spot for my feet.  I have a little extra height in the front now since I added some 3" longer fork tubes.  So hopefully things work out the way that I want.  Inseam is roughly 35".  I currently have horseshoes for pegs mounted on plates that are roughly 3-6" forward of stock peg.  The horse shoe gives a lot of variation in how and where you rest your feet, but it isn't the most comfortable.  Also, it doesn't fold so I'm pretty careful about not being too aggressive on corners which limits the fun a bit sometimes.  Probably better that I'm not tempted to get down that low anyway.  lol

thank you for the pics!  I have mine mounted on 1/4" steel plates out in front of the normal control area.  They're not on the bike yet, I have to mount the posts for the shift and brake levers and the tabs on the brake side.  I'm wondering just how much weight I can hang off of those bolts that pinch the front end of the frame/engine together.  I'm going to cut as much steel from the plates as possible to get rid of excess weight, but how much weight is too much?  I'm out a good 8 inches in front of the original controls.   Will post a pic soon.

and one more

instead of a stop for my heels, what I was planning to do was fit a standard fold up peg slightly behind and below the rear of the floorboard.  there is just enough space for it, and the mounting position would be about 3.5 inches directly beneath the stock foot peg.  I'm not sure how it will look (and that will probably be the determining factor) but if I don't like it I can always mount a heel catch on the back edge of the board.  Thanks for all your input!

I drilled out a few extra plates (for future use and or to use as a template) while I was starting the current forward floorboard project.  Considering a second set of more traditionally mounted boards, lowered 4" and not forward as much.  That should eliminate the need for the angle that I put on the first set.  However, with lowering the boards comes the need to lower linkages.  Has anyone ever tried to make an angled (flat) slide type linkage for the savage?  I'm more concerned with the shift linkage.  I think I can manage the brake side.
