Hello guys, HELP NEEDED
Hi Guys, Quick intro my names TEZ (uk) I just found and joined forum and still finding my way around the site, I'm very new to Harley though did have some fun on a sportster many years ago. I just bought a 2012 FXDF Fat Bob love the looks of it still getting to grips with it, I was hoping I could ask for some help first off I'm somewhat of a short ****, and short legged 5'6" , I'm finding it very difficult if not nearly impossible reaching the brake pedal, the problem is stock air cleaner sticks out to far and makes it very difficult it obstructs my knee not allowing me to twist my leg around and reach pedal.
Can anyone point me in the right direction regards seeking a way around this please, all suggestions would be most helpful and appreciated.
I may even laugh at the ones i'm expecting and may get .

hey ah. how do the Brits feel about Harleys? or do they Think triumphs are the best? i dunno on your brake pedal is there a relocation kit? Im only asking about the brit bikes cause some Americans over here try to profess that triumphs re best. truth is, back in the 70's maybe now not sao sure, its probably more of an indivudualistic thing..
