I have not seen them for the 500's...

Go to the EN500 Yahoo groups. You will have to join, but there is one person there that has floorboards. Not sure where he got them. He has pictures.

 

Thanks for the info my Fiance wants a 2006 but she really wants floorboards at some point, I have seen some generic ones I bet could be made to fit.

Would any of these floorboards fit the Vulcan 500?

 

Someone on this forum has some installed. I can't remember who at the moment. They fold out to extend the positioning somewhat. Kurkurian (sp.?) I think. When I find 'em I'll edit.

check here maybe? http://www.kawasakimotorcycle.org/f...ers/76914-kuryakyn-swingwing-pegs-anyone.html?highlight=Kuryakyn+SwingWing+Pegs

 

IF you can find the proverbial "hens teeth", the floorboards made for the VN750, they fit our 500 mount, but are a little loose, as they are slightly smaller where they go into the mount, and use a larger hole that makes them wobble. I git a cheap pair of "whotheHellmedethese" ones on ebay that "look" like Kuryakyn but aren't Had to put some tubing inside to make the mounting pin hold them straight. Will post mod (Mod? 3 minutes??) son.

If you google DIY floorboards, there's a guy that makes them out of aircraft aluminum. His are specifically for VN750s, but take a look at them, they may work on a 500. His bolt onto the foot pegs once you remove the rubber. I took a look and made some based on what he had, but I made mine more narrow/longer and out of 1/4" plate steele. He also shows a trick on making highway pegs that will work very well on Vulcans because of the two bolts on either side of the fram surrounding the radiator. Take a gander and see if they will work on your fiance's ride.

 

I ordered Kuryakyn mini iso-wings and adapters from Scootworks. Here are pics. They match my grips too...

 

I think this is exactly what I am going to do. I have smaller hands though I am wondering if the grips will be to big for me.

 

Maybe you can find someone that has these grips on their bike and try them out for size. Reduces vibration to the hands too. They eliminated the hands going to sleep feeling for me.

 

I put Kuryakin floorboards on my wifes 500. I got peg adapters for a VN1500 and they kind of fit (with a washer) but the boards are a little loose. They are better than the pegs though.
