I desired floorboards to go with the front, so I ordered a pair of universal floorboards, with mounts like in the first pic. I believe these are called "clevis style"? Or are they "Post style"? I'm honestly confused about the whole mess and I'm not finding much good info. I had a hard time finding much info on what I wanted, so I bought these thinking they looked like they would fit or be made to fit in the mounts on the bike.
For those who haven't seen or noticed (I have no idea if the 1500 is the same) the mounts on the bike are simply two flat brackets, mounted at 45 degrees, thus: / / They are almost an inch apart. These floorboards are not going to work without some type of adapters, but try as I might, I cannot find any adapter. I suppose I could fab something, but for this simple application, I don't want to spend the time on it.
All I can really find, to fit a vulcan rear footpeg, are the kurakyn 8831 mounts - but these adapters are for a completely different style of footpeg/floorboard mount (next picture). Then I'd have to buy kurakyn pegs, or mini-boards or whatever, and have a little over a hundred bucks involved (plus the boards I already bought)
Can anybody help me understand what "style" or "type" of pegs/boards I need to be looking for, and/or what adapters will work for this application?? Does somebody make an adapter to fit the vulcan 800 frame, that will accept this "style" of pegs??? I'm lost at the moment.
