Anybody know if I can get something along these lines for my Fatboy? Would I be able to just cut half a dozen bits of stainless pipe about a 1/2" long and use longer bolts?

look at reply #13

Riders,

Check out link below. Precise fit and great quality.

Still prefer the Kuryakyn (if it fits) because it is out 1" and fwd 1".

Too narrow by how much ? 

I was going to order some soon too.

Can you file or dremel the slot ?

.

The rear brackets fit perfect, problem is the width of the front support arms are the same as the rear, and the front brackets are almost half as wide.

I'm pretty sure a dremel won't work.

I asked the guys at Kuryakyn if they had any thing else that would fit . . . . they said no.

This may only be a problem for SERK's, but they weren't sure.  They said they were Sorry and I said . . . Me Too!

I was about to buy these.  Has anyone used these on a SEUC - or does anyone know if the mounting between a SERK and SEUC is the same or different?

Scott, are you trying to use the spacers, or the kit that moves it forward too? The 1" Kury spacers alone are no problem. I have them on my SERK. There were no issues installing them. I never looked at the Relocator Brackets to move them forward.

Hoist!

Sorry, this photo is a tad blurry, but it clearly shows the problem.  The bracket on the left is the front, and the one on right is the rear.

The rear bracket fits fine. The gap on front bracket, where it attaches to the support arm, is too narrow.  The support arms (where they attach to the footboard) on my '08 SERK, are the same width.

It should be easy to see if these will work or not.  Just look at the width of the footboard support arms (where they attach to the footboard).

Hope this helps.

Howie,

I was going to move them out and forward with the Relocator brackets - but now am unsure if they will work.  Now that I have seen the picture of the relocator bracket, I'll have to look at my brackets and see if they will work or not...

thanks - I'll take a look and see if they will work on my SEUC...

Trying to find a solution to widen and lengthen footboard position has been annoying the chit outa me for a while.

Kury P/N 4588 (pics in this thread) is supposed to move rider boards out 1" and fwd 1".  Apparently it doesn't work on SERKs which is a PITA because it's exactly what I need.

Kury P/N 450 only moves boards out 3/4"

So riddle me this batman,  If 4588 fits a SEUC that would mean the front support arm of a SEUC is different to a SERK - can I then put a front support arm from a SEUC on my SERK and then use kit 4588?

I hope I haven't confused things even further

I'm following you just fine.  Here is the dilemma however . . .

"If" the floorboards on a SEUC and a SERK are interchangeable then they both have the same issue as far as the Kuryakyn 4588 kit is concerned.

"If" the width of the front support arm (where it attaches to the floorboard) on the SEUC is different than a SERK, then the kit "may" work (on the SEUC), However . . . In order to make it work on the SERK (assuming the front support arm for the SEUC matches the width of the Kuryakyn bracket) I think you would have to change out the floorboards as well.

Now have I throughly confused you?

Not totally confused yet.

Have a look at Replies 8 & 9 - seems 4588 fits an 08 SEUC.  So the front support arm of SEUC must be narrower where it attaches to the footboard.  However, if they are interchangeable it would be easier to pack out the SERK footboard and use 4588. 

Or...given that you've bought 4588 - would 2 sets of the rear bracket do the job.  As in, does the rear bracket also fit the front support arm?

[brewnut56]

I haven't tried putting a rear bracket on the front, so I cant say for sure 
Besides having to buy two sets of 4588's @ $89.99/ea, in order to have 4 brackets of the proper width, I still dont think it will work.

Width aside, the front brackets are different than the rear.  There is a set screw on both the front brackets.  Instructions state turn set screw in until it makes contact with the support arm.  Dont ask me what they do . . . 

Once I found the front brackets didnt fit I boxed em back up and called Kuryakyn for a RA #

I don't suppose you know what the width of the slot is on the front Kuryakyn bracket and what the width of the slot is on the rear Kuryakyn bracket do you?     

[brewnut56]

I don't suppose you know what the width of the slot is on the front Kuryakyn bracket and what the width of the slot is on the rear Kuryakyn bracket do you?     

Well just so happens I do . . . .     I haven't shipped them back yet.

The slot on the front bracket is 5/16" and the slot on the rear is 1/2".

I was excited about using these on my '08 SERK, bummed that they don't fit.

That is interesting - because the width of both the front and rear floorboard mounting arms on my 07 SEUC is 1/2" - which would mean these brackets would not fit an Ultra either???

What is the width of the floorboard mounting arms on your SERK?
