Floorboards/Footboards on a Rocket

[Jay]

Surely a washer either side would sort that out ?

Wrong kind of offset. See in the picture below of the right foot peg how it is offset below the mounting point? The floorboards don’t appear to account for this and will place the right foot in the wrong location.

It would be nice if there was an adapter to account for the asymmetry of the foot pegs (the R has the left peg lower than the attachment point). Such an adapter would open up more possibilities for the Rocket.

Those are the types of adapters I had in mind, but in all cases when I’ve ordered and tried them out in the past, the dimensions didn’t work out. And I either had to grind down more material than I was comfortable changing, or the companies simply would not give me the dimensions of the mounting points. Everything had been marketed in accordance with particular motorcycle models, and so I finally gave up going to the motorcycle stores and measuring foot pegs lol I’m really looking for somebody’s actual experience in adapting foot pegs to the rocket and walking us through their process.

Yeah, tough sometimes with custom stuff. Usually some trial and error. Hopefully not that much error. I have a lot of shelf ornaments from failed attempts. But when you get it the way you want it's lovely

These look great. Only concern is the offset on one side of the bike, depending on GT or R pegs. Is there an off-set adapter that is compatible with these mini-boards?

Sorry Jay, I only know what's on the website

Any updates?

 

[Jay]

No updates. Ended up sticking with the standard pegs. Maybe others have found solutions.

So, this guy added floorboards: Footboards **update 30/3/26** | Facebook

(among the pics there is a video in the post linked)

But, they dont' fold, as he added them. It is a huge safety risk, huge.

Those interested in floorboards, please standby.

I think I might have hacked how to get decent looking floorboards with most minimal modification to already made parts, which are wildly available. My biggest hurdle was getting a shoe under the speed selector lever without it being a safety issue. I now have all the parts, looks like it is coming together. All in all ~200 USD.

PS: I have a GT. Not sure about R, very likely will work as well.

I have installed these on my 2023 GT. The tiny pins that come with them are not heafty enought to keep the joints from rocking after a few rides. I decided to buy several 1/8 wide by 1/2 long roll pins. Drilled the pin position for the angle I liked. Then after that had the joint between the 2 conectors welded. They work very well for me now. I guess I need to get you guys some pictures. Give me some time to it.
