Moto Guzzi never provided a means of mounting footboards with leg shields. Leg shields were designed to be used with foot pegs, but not with footboards. Frank Granli wanted the best of both worlds and sent this information to me in a private communication. In Frank's own words:

The pictures also show leg shields adjusted to fit footboards. I have already used them on a wet road, and the effect on my feet was very good - I remain dry even on my shoes.
