Default harley forward controls on streetbob

installed harley forward controls and the brake lever seems to be at a weird angle.
cant keep my heel on peg and brake. Is this normal or does it need adjustment.

thanks

There is adjustment at the brake cylinder end- lengthen or shorten the shift linkage - will change the angle of the brake pedal.

It's normal if you have long legs. I have a 32" inseam and I have it adjusted all the way down. As mentioned above if you haven't already (screw the brake rod in all the way).

I imagine if I had 2-3" shorter legs, it would be perfect.

I thought about putting an aftermarket brake pedal on there but I'm afraid it will make that situation worse with the angle!!
