Default Does anyone make this bracket?

I just purchased a 93 softail with thunderheader and 6" forward controls. When I rode it home, my stubby legs could barely reach the controls. I bought a new set and when I went to install the brake lever I found that my forward exaust pipe was in the way.
If I could find a bracket to move the mount just 1" forward, I can still use my new controls and exaust. Has anyone out there had this issue or know where I can find this kind of bracket
Thanks,
R.J.

Arlan ness makes a kit that moves everything 3 inches and there's some other companies that make kits that are shorter, look in the JP Cycles catalog. I think thats where I saw them. Check with the manufacturer of the company that made the exhaust to make sure you can run forward controls with your exhaust.
