On my way home today, I saw a biker by the side of the highway. I
stopped and asked if he needed help. He was looking at the ground and
walking around. He said he had put floorboards on his bike, didn't
tighten the bolt that holds the shifter on, and the bolt fell off.
That's when I looked at his bike. It's a Buell. His girlfriend was
coming to meet him and if he didn't find it, she'd give him a ride to
a hardware store for a new bolt. As I rode off, I started
wondering,..
Why would anyone put floorboards on a Buell?

Motorcycles (and their riders) don't have to make sense
or be practical, thankfully.

I love floorboards. I think they'd be great on any bike, but
completely impractical on a bike with under the body footrests. Unless
you are just bowlegged as hell, how would you ever get your foot down
at stops?
