i have a 2008 nightster. It came with foward controls when i bought it used. Went down on it and shredded up brake pedal. is the brake pedal used with fowards the same as stock or is it a completely different pedal? Thanks for any help.

 

Hi I don't quite get what you asking,but I hope this helps. the Nightster comes out with mids,a lot of riders have them swopped out immediately with the standard forward controls,they both use the same brake lever,but the mid and forward the footrest support mounting brackets differ,you can buy the brake lever on its own,the brake lever differs for model and year.H.

 

Steeler thanks you awnsered my ? perfectly. All that i need is the brake pedal my bike has foward controls so just wanted to make sure i could use a stock pedal bc i found one for $20 on ebay. Was afraid i was gonna get screwd and have to buy all new controls.thanks for the info!!

 

Cool ...I forgot to add that there seem to be some very nice looking Aftermarket levers availible.But they probiblly cost a lot more than the stock and you'd be going for a matching set of brake and gear lever.
Enjoy the ride.H

 

Speaking of brake pedals, has anyone else worn of some paint on their brake pedal? I have about 6000 miles on mine and started noticing a spot where the paint is worn off. I'm wondering if maybe it's common or if it's from my baseball spikes that I sometimes don't take off and wear home after my games.
