Maybe you can buy the peg from TC Bros and adapt it to your brake lever, or find an aftermarket peg only. You'd have to cut the tab off the current pad is connected to, and drill a hole for the new peg.
The problem with "adapting" is knowing whether this peg will withstand a hard braking application during collision avoidance. Will that threaded bolt fail or break off?

I've been wondering this when somebody else mentioned it a while back...but... tc bro has a forward controls assembly that uses that kind of peg in their kit. Could they have a safety issue as well?
If you are going through all the trouble and expenses of changing the controls, you might as well upgrade to mid controls. That's what I would do.
I actually have both forward and mid-controls. The "mid-controls" are just pegs though, braking and gear changes are still done by the forward controls. I did this just to give my legs and feet somewhere else to rest on long highway rides.

I have mid controls with hiway pegs. That's the way the bike came stock, and I very seldom use the hiway pegs. Even though I have a 34 inch inseam, they just aren't comfortable for me and I feel like I have better control of the bike using the mid controls.
