RE: extended brake pedal
Replaced my stock pedal with a later model pedal (I think its stock on 03 and later) on my RK. Gives more room to move my foot around on the floorboard. First couple of times I went to brake with it though, I missed the pedal completely.

RE: extended brake pedal
More feets room for me size 12 brogans. Here's mine, home-made from a stock pedal.
I heated the foot pedal part of the lever and straightened it. Next I got a piece of angle iron and bolted it to the end of the straightened brake lever. I then cut a notch out of the lever about 2 inches from the pivot, bent it back together, and welded it so the pedal part was at the level I wanted. I then painted the whole thing wrinkle black. I mounted the rubber part of the foot pedal longways on the angle iron so it wouldn't extend too far out over the footboard.

RE: extended brake pedal
Here's mine. Made it out of a spare I bought at a swap meet for $10.00. Dechromed, welded a piece in, and had it rechromed. More foot room!!! It doesn't move any further, but does feel different.

RE: extended brake pedal
It does not interfere with lowers but if your toes are pointing a little outward when you apply brake your foot will hit the lowers. Have to remember to keep foot more inward. It took me one time to learn that lesson. But I love the extended pedal. Wouldn't go back to stock. I got the billet design from walters workshop.
