I ended up buying the passenger mini floor boards from AST and they work great they even have lowering brackets that work with them if you need them.

The ISO adapters work fine for the ISO pegs, but the floorboards should use a splined adapters to keep them stationary.

You can use the Kuryakyn 8818 Splined Adapters and any board or peg that is splined.  They will need to be SHIMMED a little to take up a little gap but a few stainless washers will do the trick.  They will be fixed but solid.   I will be using MFW arms and peg mounts when they come off backorder.  This setup will have the ability to slide the board 360 for more comfort.

Welcome, the kit comes with two threaded allen inserts for the spline adapter to get the correct position, just remember to get some stainless washers to shim the gap.  You may want to grab a stainless bold and nut as well but the stock pin will work, and the insert spacer will be used to correct the hole diameter for the pin.  You can see the directions on the Kury website, pretty easy

Thanks for this, this was my only unknown - if I can't make the wife comfortable on this bike for long hauls, I have to sell it and upgrade to something bigger and "better".  Her words, not mine.  Normally I'd jump at the chance (Victory Cross Country would be my only choice), but I have really have grown attached to my C14, it's my 5th bike and the best so far.

I ordered the MFW Vario arms 50mm and peg mounts but the mounts are on back order with no known delivery date so I went with plan B. 

I decided to use the 8818 splined adapters and add the 3" extensions (still need to powder coat them).  I did not get the offsets that I will list below so I can only use the rear position of the board splined options.  If I was doing all over I would hav bought the offsets to allow many more options.  The board will not clear where the arm mounts to the peg mount without the offset.  UPDATE:
Just ordered the ends of the offsets so mine will not work in any of the 3 board splined positions, these are not on the Kury website and are only available from them directly.
These are the offsets that will allow any of the three splined positions on the board to be used.

I used these though, only was able to use the rear hole.

I used these boards and removed the included male mount

This was the result, the arms will rotate 360 degrees so they can be raised or lowered.

This was my previous setup I sold, with regret now.  Different Kury boards with the MFW arms and mounts

Those don't look too bad. Are they stationary or do they flip up?

Yeah, you definitely need to powder-coat them. Kuryakyn loves their chrome.

I rotated the arms up one position and then the boards cleared.  This made it possible to move to the middle position.  Better for me as it gives more room and is easier to put on center stand.  These are fixed.  I only use the boards a couple times a year so if I do not like them for some reason I can take them off during the times.

With the arms now more visible powder coating is a must.
