Rear Brake pedal adjustment
Sorry if covered before but cannot find any reference
I have a 2020 Road king M8 107 and the brake pedal is so high I have to lift my right foot completely in the air to apply, I wear a size 11.5 boot as well. I like to use the rear brake pedal for slow speed control...you know, Brake, Friction Point, throttle and eyes...but with it so high I cannot hold my foot up for any length of time with discomfort. are there levers that sit lower or can it be adjusted without to much effort...Thanks
Lovin this model, I had a 2011 with Full Stage 1 and standard Cams. With this baby went with Ceramic coated 2.5 headers, S&S Air Cleaner etc, Vance & Hines free flow pipes, Stage 2 Torque cam, mapped and Dynoed.....wow...this girl shakes my eyeballs under acceleration

I went with the chrome Kury extended brake on my RK and couldn't be happier. With a 36" inseam, I had to hover my entire boot over the stock pedal, but now it's much more comfortable angle for braking. It looked to me like both Softbrake and Kury are good products, so I tried the less expensive (by quite a bit). Looks to be good chrome, grease zerk, and a nice sturdy piece. Install was not bad at all, but did have to loosen up the engine guard...Still a piece of cake, and I highly recommend...

The brake pedal is pretty much the first thing I change on a new bike. I have used both the Softbrake and Kury, both are good options.

Another vote for Kury.
32 inseam and 13 boots.
I also have soft brake shifter extenders...so, they’re quality products as well.
Coming from an 05, I hated the rear brake height and angle stock on my 19.
I, like you, use the rear a lot and it is a huge improvement over stock.
