As I write, I'm at my first destination on my U.P. tour in Michigan. On my second day of riding, I put 500 miles under my wheels. Most of me was feeling pretty good during the trip, but my feet were beginning to ache in their single peg position. There are a few products that can help to remedy this discomfort, and the Cobra floorboards are one solution that carry a lot of style and function.
Floorboards are normally not my taste because most of my riding is city commuting. I take one or two long trips in a year and otherwise don't think of my poor feet. I'll likely forget about my experience by the time I'm home and healed, until the next occasion of lamentation when I'll wish I had these floorboards.
What I'm getting to, in my own circuitous way, is that having a high-quality set of floorboards to rest your feet on can improve your pleasure in riding. It can mean the difference between pushing on to your destination or wishing the road were a little longer. Cobra's boards offer extended leg room and vibration protection. They are constructed of stamped steel with machined billet mounts, and all of that construction is done in the U.S.A. Your knees won't cramp, your bike will have a beautiful classic look, and you'll be helping to bolster the economy.
Everything you need for installation is included, even the instructions. Cobra wants the process of using their floorboards to be painless from the time you buy them to the time you step off your ride at the end of 500 effortless miles.
Maybe you're more into the stirrup look -- in which case, these Kuryakyn Switchblade foot pegs will be hard to pass up.
