Looks very special, very nice bike, congrats

Was looking at that tonight when I was making sure the height was right for her. First time I stopped I got reacquainted with the calf hit. If I reverse them (bring them back towards saddlebags) I figured it would interfere with her legs when I have the saddlebag bags on??? I will definitely give it a whirl! Thanks!

JR,  I mean to remove the stem bolt to frame not loosen and swivel the board.  Take entire assembly from one
side to the other.  Its that simple.

JR, I have a Fox Creek windshield bag on it's way, was so use to windshield bag on my old Road King was really missing not having one on the 09'. Thanks. Seeing yours with the black LED's and Chrome trim with visor's inspired me to "save up" $$ and get some for mine. I really can't see very well with the stock lighting. I was just wondering if you have got to ride much after dark, how are the new LED's? Brighter, more coverage, worth the money?
When I got my 09 I think the first thing I bought was the relocate bracket from George...you know me and momma needed more room. Keep the pics coming.

Hey Arland!

I'm glad I was able to inspire you to spend money! This place has a way to do that! I love the foxcreek windshield bag. I had the larger single windshield bag from HD on my SEEG and needed something on my new Ultra. This bag is smaller but will meet my needs just fine. I like the way it looks on the dash pad. What I like about the Foxcreek bag is the mount. It is not a metal bracket like the HD was so it will accommodate the windshield better {more flexable). Both bags make contact with the Clearview shields I use. Not sure about the pitch on a stock windshield. The HD bag came with a protective film that goes in front of the bag to keep from rubbing against the windshield. I installed it on my SEEG but unfortunately it didn't last. Started curling around the edges so I took it off. Over time I developed a smudging on the windshield from the bag but as long as you never remove the bag it was not noticeable. Thought about getting some 3M protection to put in it's place but never did.

The LED lights are a huge improvement! I love them. I did notice in a turn you loose the peripheral brightness you have when running straight. It is due to the way the spots are designed. The spots LEDs have a bar unlike the headlight that has round, circular lights. So when in a turn the angle of the front end shoots the spots downward which gives you sort of a black out in the direction of your turn or lean compared to running straight up. Does this make sense to you?  Anyway, it is still worth the money in my opinion. I really LOVE the way the black lens and chrome rings off sets the front end of my Yellow Jacket! Wasn't sure when ordering how it would look but know I couldn't be happier! Have a great day and God Bless!!!

JR, thanks for the feedback. I switched the passenger boards around last year like Bucknut said and it was a big improvement for my legs. Did not seem to help my BSR that much but most of the time she rides her RKC anyway. Have to save up for the LED lights (ouch $$) yours look great, I hope they look that good on mine but more importantly I know they will help me see better. Oh Santa...       Arland

I haven't swapped my passenger floorboards yet. It looks to me like the floorbard design will be swapped also and not match the front design. Momma is not a full time rider so I will continue to mole this over. Fact is I'm kinda anal about things like that, may sound silly but that's just the way God made me!

Oh yeah, those LED's will look great on your bike! I saw a picture on Spyders Huckleberry and they looked awesome, I'm sure they will look just as good on your silver and blue!

Well, you are correct about the design on the passenger floorboards not matching the rider boards if you swap sides, BUT I think I remember reading some old posts (maybe a year ago) about also switching the back plates so they match. Sorry I don't recall the exact solution to that issue. Normally them not matching would have been a deal breaker for me also but I decided it was more important for them to not hit me in the legs whenever I needed to push the bike backwards. Maybe someone else can help.

JR...it is possible to swap the brackets, then take the floorboards off and swap them back so things will look "normal".  I had mine swapped for a little while, but didn't like the look of the boards not matching, so put them back.  I put the George Anderson TP relocator on, and now have the passenger boards one notch forward of vertical, which helps.  With them horizontal to the ground, there is NO room for your legs, especially if you've got short legs and can't get them out far enough to miss the passenger boards.  Judi is 5'3" and the one notch from vertical seems to be working for her.  I can't remember how tall Deb is, but I seem to remember she's pretty petite...

Thanks Terry! Deb is about 5'4" and likes where the floor boards are now. I will swap them and then swap the floor boards...no big deal! Right now I don't have a big problem with it as long as I rember she's back there and there down! I'm 6' and just be sure to spread my stance a little more. Thanks again!
