They existed, once - at a price.

Believe those are mid control kits. I’m looking for the bracket that alters the angle of the break pedal and the rod that goes to the master break cylinder

Nada, They're still out there you just have to look for them. Run a search for Jay Brake adjustable forward controls. I see a set on Ebay that will fit your bike. The foot peg can be rotated forward or backward. They're pretty slick.

Thanks Branner. I found them but doesn’t bring the brake lever or shifter lever any closer...
