I can't seem to find an extended foot brake lever from Harley or Kuryakyn.

Looking for longer and lower.

Only one I found was Softbrake I believe.  Anyone use these?

Any other options?

Thanks

If you have to stop and think about if it is right or wrong, Assume it is wrong.

One of these days...  I plan to see if the brake lever from the '12 will or won't work on the '14.  I really dislike the ergonomics of the newer layout.  It shouldn't be a factor on a street glide, but I'm thinking it'll be close quarters with the newer lower fairings, which is probably why they made the change.

I asked a similar question as an aside in another thread here a bit back and was told something like "the throw is off" so they wouldn't interchange.  On its face, the comment was easily set aside since the difference in angles between the foot and cylinder levers is what I want to "restore".  If the bore and width of the pivot hub is the same, and the distance from that to the clevis hole is the same, and the clevis hole is the same size, the only limiting factor should be clearance out at the working end of the lever.

The softbrake website is woefully lacking in any detailed information and is just about unusable in terms of trying to find things.

http://waltersworkshop.com/extended-pedals.html is reported by its server to have been last modified 18 June 2012, so cannot be used to determine whether the '14+ bikes will accept them.

I like my performance machine brake & shift... their webpage indicates 1984-2014 FL  :up:

FYI, might also want to move your boards... take a look at the Kury #4588 Floorboard Relocation Brackets, move 1" up forward & out  $100.00

Greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance, it's the illusion of knowledge.

Walters workshop emailed me and stated 2014 and newer brake lever coming end of summer.

Think I'll get a Softbrake as its all that I've been able to find.

Thanks
