Problem is it looks like all those pedals are for standard mids, not the 2” further forward mids on the low riders and our low rider s’s…

I think adding some kind of a pad to raise the pedal surface an inch or so would do it, but the one piece pedal/pad has no provision for any kind of pad. Thinking maybe I’d have to drill the pedal and get something like a bagger pedal (though not that ridiculously big) on it.
Anyone ever hear of such a thing?
I'm sure they have some for the Metrics that might work, since they have a similar stock pedal, so you could check on those. I'm pretty sure Kuryakyn makes one, and here's a link to one:
https://www.jpcycles.com/honda-motorcycle-brake-pedal-pads-and-covers]https://www.amazon.com/Kuryakyn-8849-Brake-Pedal-Pad/dp/B00BLPU8HI https://www.jpcycles.com/honda-motorcycle-brake-pedal-pads-and-covers]https://www.amazon.com/Kuryakyn-8849-Brake-Pedal-Pad/dp/B00BLPU8HI
. It clamps around the pedal like a clamshell to hold it on instead of grinding off the points and drilling and putting a bolt through. I know there are quite a few others out there that may work, too, like these: https://www.jpcycles.com/honda-motorcycle-brake-pedal-pads-and-covers.
I know that's probably verboten, but, if it works...

Since there are 2 holes for where the peg can go, 1 closer, and 1 out at the end, it looks to me like those arms could be for either or both.

Chrome! Blech.

Just kidding, but definitely won't work here. Take a look at my pedal and you'll see why. I don't have a top down shot but you get the idea. It's a solid, cast pedal - the pad is probably 2"x2" only. What I really need is probably not in existence. I guess I'll have to mock up something with my 3d printer and send the design to a machine shop and have it made... The other problem is the further forward pedal is longer and shaped differently then the standard Dyna mid pedal, so the aftermarket stuff probably won't work.

It's not the end of the world if I can't make it work, would just be nice to have if possible.

I don't think your pedal looks any bigger than the one for my Honda, so they should work. I understand not wanting chrome, but you could always have it powdercoated black to match. Just an idea...
Maybe this would work: https://goldstrike3d.com/products/brake-pedal-cover
