Default EZ-Brake question???

Can anyone please tell me what the difference is between the EZ-Brake / EZ-Shifter compared to the Kuryakyn extended Brake pedal and the extended shift lever? There is quite a bit of difference between price. I'm wanting to move my floor boards forward 2" and then do the brake and shifter at the same time. I have a 34" in-seam and size 12 boot. Any information would be GREAT!!!

Dunno about the Kury's, but the EZ Brake & Shifter are EXCELLENT. I've had the same set since 2001 & they are now on the 3rd bike.

Only difference I know for sure is that the EZ Brake parts are made in USA, the other is import.

Do you happen to have pics of them installed on your ride? Are your floorboards moved forward? Any info would be great!

I have posted some before... a couple times in fact, but I can't seem to get the search feature to locate them.

There are a couple shots in my photo gallery in which you can see them. Check there & see if that helps....

I had the same question and I called Kuryakyn. They told me that these items are about the same. The E-Z Brake is not made by Kuryakyn, but they sell it for the manufacturer. The extended brake pedal is made by them. The E-Z Brake extends (I'm trying to remember) about 1/4" further out than the extended brake. There is a big price difference too but I think the E-Z Brake looks better.

This weekend Iinstalled a Kury extended brake pedal purchased froman HDforum member. Great manufacturing, heavy chrome plating, nice matching foot pedal. Really fun to be able to plant my size 11 foot squarely down without tucking under the brake pedal. Install was not fun and required buying a C-clamp to remove the pressed-in clevis pin and removing both the exhaust system and the footboard.

TheEZ Brake pedal is by the far the best accessory I have purchased for our Ultra. Harley should have thrown their stomp pedal away years ago in lieu of of something that works as good as the EZ Brake.

not trying to hi-jack the touring section -

I installed the Kuryakyn E-ZBrake pedal (the $170.00 one) and the Kuryakyn extended Shift lever on my Fat Boy. I alsoinstalled extended "touring" floorboards to move them forward about 2 inches and extenders to move them out about 1 1/2 inches.the brake pedal moved the pad forward about 1 1/2 inches and down close to the floorboard. the shift lever moved the shifter pad about 1 3/4 inches forward. I also removed the heel shifter.

here are a couple of photos of them.




I love mine! best thing I've done to my bike.

I think the big difference is that ez-brake moves the pedal out and down where the kuryakyn only moves out.
