Has anybody made one? I used one for many years on my America, without floorboards. Got spoiled. Thanks, --Tom  Author  Post     Xfarmer  Set Reg.

The way it's designed , I can't see how the Triumph heel/toe piece would work without the floorboards.   John Suzuki Boulevard S83, 2010 T-Bird 1700 ***Love one woman.... many guitars.*** artjohnmayer.com  Author  Post     fab  Thor Reg.

(Re: Ultimate38)   I think you are on to something When I get time, I will try to go to a motorcycle junk yard or a Harley shop (both about 2 hrs drive from here), and do some investigating.
