Although I'm kind of used to the position of the brake pedal now, I went ahead and ordered one from Softbrake today.

Looks like the position will be a bit more comfortable.

Don't think you'll regret it.

The first mod I made to my '06 was the EZ Brake pedal. It moves the pad of the pedal forward and down, giving you more room on the floor board, and allowing you to leave your heel on the floorboard while modulating the brake pedal pressure.

Installed my Softbrake pedal this morning. These pics aren't the best but hopefully will illustrate the difference from stock.

Me like!

I went ahead and ordered a new brake pedal for my '14 Limited. It took about a day to get used to it and it is a BIG improvement. I ordered the SB014 (p). I am not using any spacers or extended floorboards. If you order online, they ask what kind of bike you will be installing it on so they can compare fitment compatibility for you. Very, very pleased with the build of the pedal and the only tricky part on installation was getting a new cotter pin in place. It was a good decision.

Their website says +1 won't work with lowers? I want to order the +1 for my street glide with lowers.

Can you post a couple pics, please?

I'll try to post some pics later but I believe there is a previous post on this thread where somebody put up 4 pics with before/after. Definitely can't go with a +1 or +2 with lowers. IMO you wouldn't want that anyway unless you are wearing huge boot size. The SB014 (p) I installed allows me access to the entire floorboard without hitting the pedal. Transitioning my right foot from foot peg to rear brake is much easier and quicker now too. I can see why they said the +1 and +2 won't work with lowers though. It's because there just isn't anymore clearance for the pedal to come down without hitting the inside. On mine, I have only about a half inch of clearance left. Hope that helps.
