I added floorboards to my Indian Scout Bobber - and I like it!

[@spartan8185]

Great install video!! Seems like a lot of us have the same idea, "The Bobber needs floorboards." I added a set of Joker Machine mini-floorboards to my bobber. So much more comfortable. Great idea and happy riding.

[@dadwithabike]

I thought about Jokers but wasn't sure about the comfort without some padding. How are they?

[@spartan8185]

@@dadwithabike Very comfortable but with the serrations you have to be deliberate with your movements. My feet don't "slide" around to up shift or down shift. I'll need to adjust the shifter a little as well. Just haven't gotten around to it. Far more supportive then the stock pegs.

[@time_of_yer_life_eh_kid]

any issue with the clearance between the shifter peg and floorboard? Enough room to get your boot/shoe under it with no problem?

[@joshuablair8865]

I have the same issue

[@russellacker9636]

Thank you for this. So happy I watched it. Gave me the confidence to tackle it myself. I did spring $12 at Harbour Freight for the ring tool though. I have a backseat on my Scout 60. I was wondering everyones thoughts on putting those Boards on for the passenger seat as well?

[@MidwesternFC]

How are the Dean speed crash bars holding up? I'd really like to get these but are they secure enough? Thanks for the videos!

[@goldenboygq9]

Does your foot fit well between the shifter and floor board not to cramped?

[@RogerDodger01]

Looks great! I went with the Scout boards as I used the "Heroes" promotion to cover these and the Indian low wind deflector, otherwise would have done same as you. $200 for the word "Indian" is approaching stupid level from a consumer standpoint. I'm also adding a heel/toe shifter. Aeromach makes a nice one. Had this on my previous CVO Street Glide and it completes the floorboard "ergonomic" experience. Have fun!!

[@dadwithabike]

Thanks! I'm toying with a heel shifter as well.

[@whitebeltchamp1]

I installed those same aftermarket floorboards on my scout bobber 60. The only issue I have is they don’t flip up like the old pegs did. They go up maybe halfway. I worry if that will be an issue when I’m taking a turn and go into a deep lean. Great videos, keep them coming!

[@dadwithabike]

So, I did a lean test in my garage. The distance they go up is still more than before the bike would slide.

[@heathjohnson2575]

That was the first mod I did to my sixty and love it. I’ve put floorboards on every bike I’ve had. Not a fan of pegs

[@dadwithabike]

Sure does make it more comfortable

[@vonvolker8778]

Where to grab the custom tank logo for the bobber ?

[@pjdaprinz]

Nice video and even nicer pegs! How is the lean angle compared to the pegs? Can you lean more or less?

[@dadwithabike]

I "feel" like I can lean more but I think that is because my feet are up a little bit. I did a lean-over test in my garage and it's fine.

[@gregoryhobbs3368]

I did the same thing, and with my boots I had to adjust the clutch lever to provide a little extra hight.

[@dadwithabike]

yeah, I may be doing that as well - it's a tight fit

[@claytonrhoades938]

I'm in the same boat as you and a newbie. Is it the clutch lever you actually adjusted? Hard project? Thank you.

[@longface6045]

Do those have the floor board tilt like the Indian one. The Indian ones you can set the tilt angle of the floor boards . It would suck if those stay flat

[@dadwithabike]

They tilt. They go on just like regular pegs do and use the pivot bolt fr the OEM pegs.

[@longface6045]

@@dadwithabike thanks, I’m going to be getting these then . 👍✌🏼

[@claytonrhoades938]

By tilt, do you mean the permanent position (so not flat) or just do they fold up and down a bit? I just installed mine and they ride flat but have a very small amount of tilt up when needed. I'm new to this so I may misunderstand. Thx.

[@dadwithabike]

@@claytonrhoades938 Nope, your dead on. There's a slit tilt for when you grind the feelers on the floorboard so there's some give. Normal riding, they are flat.

[@longface6045]

@@claytonrhoades938 the front toe and heel tilt. My ankles bug me when flat. With the pegs I have the my toes up and heel down.

[@marcmiller2218]

Love your ride, I've got the same war bonnet on my tank as well, but no one else here in Australia has it - I love that! What jack are you using and does it lift the bike completely off the floor?

[@dadwithabike]

So the jack is just a motorcycle scissor jack from Amazon (paid $70 USD for it). It won't lift the entire bike up but lets me to work on the front or back and also keeps it level for me.

[@btoso32]

Fine, you sold me. Does it allow for more comfortable seating positions. Seem like with just the pegs I can't adjust much.

[@dadwithabike]

It does for me. It lets me move my feet around from a forward position to mid, out to the side ... lots of freedom to move.

[@btoso32]

@@dadwithabike that's what i was thinking. Thanks for the feedback!

[@keonslaw100]

Are the bars on the side of the radiator foot rest or to protect the bike if it's dropped? Where did you get them from

[@dadwithabike]

They are crashbars, but you can rest your feet on them. I got them from Dean Speed

[@nicolamilessmith7938]

Do they make theses for the passenger too?

[@pdsarizona1191]

Thank you so much for all the great video/content. I absolutely look forward to all of your videos as they have helped me big time. I have an Indian scout bobber 2021. I bought similar floorboards from ebay. I just can't get the rubber washer in. I tried what you showed but it still doesn't fit in. I've installed it without that rubber washer for now. Any suggestion on how I can resolve this problem would be of great help.. 🙏

[@dadwithabike]

Awesome, you'll love it. They are fun and easy to customize

[@alfonsofontanella852]

Have you noticed any change in lean angle

Nothing negative .... still scrape the pegs about the same spot I usually do when riding my normal routes.

[@JennieDreamWeaver]

Question for you, I want to purchase the same floor boards you shared the link to on eBay however I have a 2021 scout bobber, I asked the seller if they would fit and they replied they don’t fit my bike. Is your the scout 60? Wasn’t sure why they wouldn’t fit.

[@dadwithabike]

Mine is the Scout Bobber and they should fit because the controls are the same. It is just a simple pin involved in removing the pegs and adding the floorboards.

[@JennieDreamWeaver]

@@dadwithabike thank you for replying! Thanks for the video too, I’m excited to add them to my new ride!

Wanted to thank you for this helpful video. I followed your link to the buy the same floorboards and your video was my tutorial. Thank you for that. My riding boots are now very tight on both sides so I think I'm going to have to make adjustments as well. Hope you have videos for that! =)

Sadly I don't because my boots ended up fitting; however, you can adjust the nut on the shift linkage to bring the shift lever up.

I'd call mine "not official" but it's probably from the same manufacturing facility. These items are built overseas by Indian anyway and it's pretty typical that those facilities begin pushing their own "unbranded" versions of things. They are fine quality, just not official.
