Question Floating Floorboards

Went on a ride the other day and swapped bikes with a friend for a few miles. He has a HD electraglide which was a nice ride, but what I really liked was his floorboards. He has these "floating" floorboards that feel almost spongy or springy under my boots. They had no vibration whatsoever and were super comfortable. I must have them too! Unfortunately his are HD only.
Do any of you have something similar?

There is a reason why HD have to make their floorboards vibration free :)

If the ones from a Voyager would fit they do have the same floating system as the HD ones.

When I changed from a Nomad to a Voyager my wife did not like the Voyager floorboards as the foot pad moved around. I fixed it by adding tie wraps to the nibs on the footpads under the chrome cover thereby stopping the foot pad from moving around.

My 2013 Voyager came standard with them for both the driver and passenger. I removed the passenger ones as I've made my Voyager a solo ride. If you're interested in them give me a shout.
