Boot Guards/Heel Guards Rider Floorboard

[Amputee55]

Hey Ya'll

I need recommendations on boot guards, 1) to keep my feet planted on the floorboards. 2) Keep burning rubber off the pipes.

Pls include links if you have them.

Recommendations much appreciated.

Go Army !

There are quite a few out there - But all about the same price. I liked the HD logo.... Right side only and I did put the Floorboard Extenders {both sides} I haven't had to clean rubber off the pipes since. Looks like the best price is here:

JC1300,

I like your choice.. and that includes the blacked out pipes. What are you running there?

Sorry, not trying to hijack this thread... I think that the guard is the best looking I have seen also.

When I originally bought my Freewheeler (same as Tri-Glide) I bought / installed the H-D floorboard heel guard too, P/N 50500225.

Then I installed DK Custom floorboard 1" extenders P/N DK-TR-FLB-EXT-TG. I didn't need the heel guard (my big feet were further away from the exhaust) but I liked the chrome guard, so I left it on.

However, I subsequently bought / installed H-D 1" longer floorboards P/N 50409-04. Although it's not mentioned on the H-D web site or instruction sheet, I was forced to remove the H-D floorboard heel guard. The two aren't compatible.

My 2¢ . . .

Thanks - Those are the Rush Headers....I am a fan of Rush in general for performance and quality, but really like them because they are ceramic coated inside and out. Drops the heat......my wife appreciates them a lot.

And they are H-pipes but don't look like it!

I need to have guards that go behind your boot to keep prosthetic left leg from getting blown off the floorboard

Oh.....I'm sure with all of the gang on it, we can come up with a solution!!

Looks like one could use a sheet metal brake and bend the hd ones around the back of the board.

Do you need it to completely come around the heel or just flat in the back:

I made this from a piece of 2" aluminum angle iron; worked pretty good for me.

If you zoom in on this pic you can see what I have on my current trike.

I know this is an older thread, but here is a pic of my new floor"boards" and the Carl Miles heel guard that works great to keep my foot/boots away from the hot pipe.
