Floorboard Extensions

For the Road Star

Deutsch=Grün

The addition of floorboard estenstions has been a pretty common mod that quite a few people have done over the last several years. It's a I've included 2 different patterns offered by forum members, both are functionally working pattern that are easily made with few tools.

Für "längerer" Fahrer werden oft Trittbretter Verlängerungen angesprochen,
hierbei wird ein Rel. Einfachen Umbau beschrieben.

About the subject of JPEG Images, even though you draw out a perfect to scale drawing, scan it, and save it as a jpg file extension, it does not mean that when you open it in your own graphics program XYZ , means that when you print it out, that, it will be a exact scale image due to differences in the way different programs handle the same file.

Due to this I'm adding dimensions to the drawings and also offering the files as JPG's.

Achtung bei Ausdruck von Jpeg Dateien, die Maßangaben werden nicht zu 100% auf Papier wieder gegeben !

Another option to making your own brackets are to purchase them from 4KRZN's Motorcycle Enhancements. They are made of Stainless Steel and polished to a great finish. I was recently offered a good deal by John for a set of these but due to not wanting to spend money to customize my bike any further, I declined the offer, (thanks John), but if you would rather purchase, then buy them. John's site link is on my web page, look for "Motorcycle Enhancements".

Man kann die Teile von "Motorcycle Enhancements" kaufen, Wozu? man kann sie einfach nachbauen

Before you look, notice that Dave's design moves the boards forward 3 1/4" and upward at a 15 degree tilt.

Ich habe die "Dave" Entwurf gebaut und Montiert, es ergibt einen etwas längeren Bein!

(Note: floorboards mount in the two left most holes of the drawing, the two right most holes mount on the frame of the bike.)

Es müssen (natürlich) 2 Schienen angefertigt werden.
Die Waagrechten Löcher sind für die Trittbrett Kulissen vorgesehen, die Schrägen für die Rahmen Fixierung.

These floorboard extensions are simple to make as long as you have a drill and something to cut the steel with. All you need is 2 pcs. of steel flat bar that is 3/8" thick, 1-1/2" wide and 6" long. I used a mini grinder with a cutoff wheel but I guess you could use a hacksaw and a file. You could also just leave the piece with square edges, it probably wouldn't make much difference. Prime them up and paint them black and they will look great.

ICH habe 11mm Starken Aluminium verwendet, ich hatte ein Satz aus 6mm Edelstahl angefertigt, sie waren NICHT Steif nicht genug, die 11mm Teile sind Perfekt.

Ausschneiden, Saubermachen, Anpassen, Abbauen, Lackieren, Montieren - fertig !

When installing the extensions, you can reuse the bolts that hold on the floorboards. If you change them, you need 10mm bolts about 1" to 1-1/2" long and a 1.25 thread pitch. For remounting the boards to the extensions you can use 1/2" bolts. Make sure you use Locktite so they don't rattle loose.

An den Rahmen können Sie die Orig. Yamaha Bolzen wieder verwenden.
Um die Trittbretter-Kulissen zu fixieren werden M10 Schrauben, Scheiben und Selbst. Sichernden Mutter benotigt.

On the brake side of the bike you will have to remove the brake line from the clips along the frame so you will have enough slack to move the board forward. I just tie wrapped it back to the frame in a couple of places.
Adjustments to the pedal height can be done with the rod adjustment on the pedal.

Bremsseitig,
Bremsschlauch vollständig aus die Yamaha Rahmenklippse entfernen, anschl. wieder mit Kabelbinder an den Dicken Schlauch unterhalb der Motor wieder Befestigen - nach hinten frei lassen.
Sie können die Bremspedal anschl. nach Bedarf einstellen.

On the shifter side of the bike you will have to remove the arm off the shifter and move it 2 splines counter-clockwise. When complete you can fine tune the length to your preference using the adjustment on the shifter rod.

Linksseitig
Schaltgestänge zerlegen, vorderer Schaltarmgelenk um 2 Zacken nach Hinten versetzen (Gegen Urhzeiger Richtung), alles wieder Montieren, Schaltwippe nach Belieben einstellen.

That's it, and I think that you'll enjoy the relaxed riding position. Good Luck, Dave McDougall (Zoomer)
