Saw a fella last night with a new R3 {Hooray! Another Rocket Captain in my town!} that had a set of Triumph boards that were lower and flatter than mine. His boards were about 1 1/2"- 2" lower than mine and not angled up in the front either. They looked like they would be more comfy than mine.
I guess my question is, how many different styles of R3 board configuations are there and where would be the best {cheapest :) } place to get the lower style? Maybe someone has a good used set of the flatter style they want to sell?
This is what I have on my Rocket with heel shift cut off.

I believe there are just two configurations. No doubt better info may be coming shortly. I believe the Classic and the accessory floorboards from Triumph for the Standard are the two you are seeing. Now we will both find out. :lol:
 
Are they both TRiumph floor boards?

I know that the Triumph floorboards come with a whole new bracket. The Rivco ones would just replace the pegs therefore they would be about an inch pulled back.
 
Thanks Jack!

I must have accessory boards from Triumph.
The other fellas bike has R3 Classics for sure as per busajack's pics.

I guess its time to find a Classic board set up for my Rocket. Anybody have a set to sell or am I doomed to buying them thru Triumph?

It doesn't look like I can re-weld mine if I cut and relocate the boards. The mounting bulkhead looks cast to me. Wonder how Triumph welded the boards to the steel tubing?
