You can use the large pedal but need to drill a bigger hole in the floor of the brake lever. Ps if your using a hd large brake pedal I would suggest taking it apart 100% and popping out that pos "nut thingy" they put in there and replace it with a regular nut it tightens up better and more secure since your pedal floor is shorter than the large pedal.

I did a seach and it seems no one makes any larger pedals for FXDC. I am hoping that just bending the pedal over a bit will solve my issue. I just did it this afternoon and have not had a chance to ride/test it to see if it does. Yes the pedal height can be adjusted as stated above.
