I have an 07 RTX and notice my feet getting extremely wet. I can only assume it's from the heat exchangers on the running boards. I have HMK boots and never had this problem. After a day of riding my socks are completely soaked with sweat. Kind of nasty. Looking to see if anyone else is having this problem and if so how to fix it
thanks :4STroke:

i ride with my feet in the footwell sturrips....locked in with toes under toeholds while railing down the trails....feet are toasty but id say perfect....never too hot...unless ofcourse its spring riding or something.

Light never came on. Although the running boards are hot. I do ride with my feet up in the stirups. I wonder if anyone is putting down some thing on the boards to keep your feet cool? ;)!

this is why i said what i said above.....if your feet are in the footwell stirrups,they arent on the running boards....just your heel rests back but your foot is on the alum stirrup.

i do have PADS on my boards from there back,strictly to save the paint....

sounds like you need to cheaper boots,thinner insulation,maybe some sweat socks?..lol
