I'm debating on adding floorboard extensions to my bike and wondering what size others have. I'm 6' tall and use a stock SGS seat. Looking to get my feet away from the pipes and shifter for a more comfortable ride on long trips. I've seen extensions that move the floorboards out anywhere from 3/4" to 1-1/2". Anyone have any suggestions on length and where is the best place to buy?
 
I run 3/4" and just enough for me (smallish size 10 boots). But, I have hit the boards on occasion. I personally wouldn't want much more because of that, but 1-1/2" would certainly be more comfortable. If you have touched down metal parts already or ride "aggressively", I would recommend to err on the shorter side.
 
Out a little would be nice, but I'm wanting to move them forward an inch or so. While riding, toe are hanging over the front of the boards, and there is at least 2" of board showing behind my heel. I'm 6'2" with a 36" inseam, so I do have long legs.
 
I'm 6'0 and once the highest pegs were added, I just rest the toes on them, even in town. They are up enough to not drag in corners. Also added the Tallboy floorboard lowers for room. I can scrap the boards but that's it.
