Default Anyone know how to moved forward control back 1"
I am trying to find a way to move my forward controls back 1", I can reach them just fine, but I would like to get a little more bend on my knees when riding.

I had a similar situation with my Kuryakyn extended forwards. I could reach the pegs fine but wanted a little more bend in my leg. I found adding stirrups completely transformed the feel of the bike.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kurya...s#ht_871wt_732

Custom Cycle peg elevators work great.

Replace your pegs with floorboards.

+1 on the peg elevators. After install just adjust brake control rod and your 1" back.
