Illium floorboards scraping.

Post by Fieldstone »

Hey Guys
Best for a great new year. Does anyone notice the
scraping of the Illium floorboards on tight corners?
It’s not an all the time thing and it’s gentle when it
happens but it does happen.
2019
Anyone else?

Truth is - any peg/board can be scraped if you try hard enough. I toyed with the thought of those boards, but they looked too limiting for ground clearance for my needs. Just be sure to have your suspension settings cranked up and ride that pace they allow.

My 2019 RT came with Illium floorboards installed. I took them off and put the original rider pegs back on because they were scraping too often. I do tend to ride pretty aggressively in the twisties so that might be the main issue :lol:
