Default Forward Controls

I was wondering if there is a kit/bracket to move a 2010 Wide Glide's forward controls back about 2"-4"? I am 5'6" and have to reach a bit but love the laid back position.

Not sure but I've read about the reverse...FXDL kit to move mid controls forward a bit. That's where I'm wanting to go. I got shortitis like you....

Pros will be along to help shortly.

Good luck and safe travels.

Thanks Jeff, I also have heard of people having brackets made to any offset they like, I was just wondering because I have to change shifter length and brake linkage.

Good luck - looks like fskitch found what you need and for fairly cheap. My mid controls moved forward kit is around $300!! Sheesh.
