Default Raise rear brake pedal

I have a fused ankle and big feet. I cannot apply the rear brake pedal without my feet hitting the lower fairing. I need the brake pedal to be about an inch higher. Anyone know of a way to adhust, or an after-market lever that will raise the pedal?

No way to adjust!

Contact Softbrake

When the 14's came out with a higher pedal, many of us wanted the lower pedals

within a couple months, softbrake had the new style pedals available for purchase (extended also)

And no....the 14's won't work on the older bikes (different shaft size)

They might be able to custom build one for you. Or have one that would work

Block of wood hose-clamped to the pedal, just like we used to do to our cars for short legged drivers.

If it works well, make it fancy and place it between the cover pad and the pedal itself. You could even get fancy and offset it any way you desire.

An earlier 2000 pedal might work, shorter/higher. Have one.
