As much as I scrape mine, I would have my tools, or what ever, scattered all over the place. No thanks.

I would rather have a locking console with storage for my ultra.

How about a storage compartment for the rear footboards? I believe I would tear the riders boards off if they were any thicker then they are.,,

Thanks for the link though...
I have to agree with Eve. Awfully expensive for a very limited amount of space.

I'm not worried about it, I just won't be buying it. Every aftermarket floorboard I've ever tried has been flimsy and has scraped like hell. If I wanted floorboards I'd stick with the ones that Harley makes and I'd skip the tool storage/gun storage gimmick that these offer.

Default Here's an idea!

Could be a useful place to store your gun, and lock it up.

That's a phony photoshop.
Not that gun you won't. That's a photoshop job that's been around for quite a while. The gun in the picture is a SIG 226 size gun. No way it would fit in a floorboard that size. There have been other threads on the same picture.
