OK. This is my first cruiser (01 Volusia) and motorcycle in a loonngggg time. Pretty happy with it so far and appreciate all the good vibes from the folks on this forum.
One of the mods that I did was to pick up a set of generic floorboards. After installing them, I find it much more comfortable to ride, but that I'm having an issue shifting (mostly up). I thought the shift pedal needed adjustment and have tried everything. I was starting to think that maybe I have a mechanical problem.
In speaking with a few more seasoned riders, the conscientious is that the floorboard sit too far out and are not letting my toe get a straight pull up on the pedal. They use the same mounting points as the pegs did and they do seem to sit out further from the frame.
Any experience or recommendations on a brand/model of floorboards that might work better? Is this the cause of my shifting issues or are the other riders FOS?
