HAHA, I'll get it taken off and boxed up for you right away! Wait, no, too late, already attached to its look and function.

I am very pleased with how the cobra passenger boards fit on there, glad I just happened to have them for the Vstar 950. They didn't fit my 950 with the Vance and Hines 2into2. The Cobra Slip-on sounds nice, plenty loud and has a great rumble at idle. Torn between Kury and Avon grips right now. Was thinking some Avon heated grips but they got some sketchy reviews so I'm not sure yet. The other "up in the air" thing is the Corbin seat, trying to decide if I want blue welts or not. I think it could give it a cool custom look, but wondering if it will be a little tacky looking...hard to tell without seeing it.

Ah Man, That was too close! Almost had you talked into it! HEHE
On another note- the blue welts might look OK on the Blue bike, but not feeling it on any other color bike except maybe white or Silver, but Yami ain't done those colors for Stryker yet.

I was thinking the Kury ISO Grips like I had on my 950 or the similar style of AVON. Love the look of those Arlen Ness but I have some 3000+ trips this year and I'm looking more for comfort.

Leaning away from the welts, the Corbin dual tour seat is already a bulkier seat compared to stock, and dont think drawing more attention to it would make a positive difference.

Those passenger floor boards are nice. Will the fit with the regular exhaust or cobra swept. If so where did you get them and what are they.

They are the Cobra Vstar 950 passenger floorboards. They will not fit with the stock exhaust, and don't think they would fit with the swept either. With the slip-on they only have about 1/2" of clearance, if that.

I've got Cobra floorboards (for the Stryker) that fit fine with stock exhaust. Purchased through my dealer, not sure what vendor.

Yep, I just like the fact that these drop the passengers feet so they aren't as cramped on the back.

Got in my saddlebags and mounts (Cruiselite bags), vertical license plate mount and LED frame, and my Corbin Dual Tour seat will be here Wednesday. More pics to come once I have those goodies installed.

Immortal, did you get and install these? I'm starting to think I might go the all chrome route.
