Nice you will either need to buy a complete used set from a Dual headlight Classic or a single headlight Rocket III Touring or the very, very rare Dual headlight accessory version. They all share the same engine and engine mounting points but require changes to your rear brake setups as well as different brake lever and gear levers and fitments.Lol! Great info Ishrub, but not sure how much applies to my bike. I have a new used Roaster with pegs. I’d like to convert to boards and heel shifter, but am just now researching and am not sure how difficult it will be to convert. Also looking for a shop manual on it.
Just got it painted and put back together, so looking pretty nice…
An Aussie bought a complete set of Touring footboards and everything required for his ABS Roadster from the local dealer a few years ago and it was over $2000 in parts. I have sold about 4 sets of NOS and used over the past 5 years and can scrounge up about half a set online from various used parts listing spread over the world. I have a new pair of teardrop Touring footboards here but finding the rest is very difficult.
The next best option I use on my own Roadster is Kuryakyn 5 position deluxe footboards in either chrome and black or the blacked out cheaper version. There are also 3 position smaller ones and mini versions too. They use a spline adaptor to fit to stock Dual headlight footpeg mounts. I have a perfect spare set with spline adaptors sitting next to me but cheaper for you to buy in USA.
If you want a more foot forward position you can switch to the front peg rails of the pre ABS 3 pipe models 2004-2009.
You can still use the RIVCO front footpeg mounts you have too.
These are much more commonly available and I have a couple of used sets in my shed.
You do have to change rear brake lines but much simpler to fit to an ABS Roadster with a easy flipping of the gear shift linkage direction.
