Default Longer heel shift lever

I was looking atthe new Kuryakyn conversion kit that moves your linkage down underneath the floorboard because it moves the heel shifter back to the end of the floorboard.

I found a two inch longer shift lever in J&P Cycles but it says it fits 87 to 99 Softail. http://www.jpcycles.com/catalog/2007...talog/0911.asp

I need it to fit an 07 Ultra Classic. Does anybody know where I can find a stock looking longer heel shifter for an 07 Ultra Classic?

I wanted more room for my feet and went with the EZ Brake and EZ Shifters. You can check them out in my photo gallery.

I'm after the same thing, more room on the floorboard. What I'm hoping for is to just change the heel shift lever instead of both levers. The brake works for me, I've rode the stock levers so long it would feel weird if I moved it. I just found a fifteen dollar extended shift lever in the Jireh Cycles catolog that fits FLT 84 & later p/n 47-117. It looks like an affordable experiment.

Nice gallery by the way!

I used the J&P S100170 extended shifter on my 2006 FLSTC.
It fits and works great. Only thing is that its beefier and has better chrome then the
stock toe shifter.

Thats a nice looking lever. Is it steel?
I guess it would work for the front also.

Yes it is steel. and I'm sure it would work as a toe shifter as well. The stock levers are the same part number, one mounted forward and one back. I couldn't see switching to Kuryakyn because then I'd have to get the matching toe lever(about $190.00 total). This unit matches stock pretty well the only visible difference at a glance is the bolt is chrome and a little smaller diameter.
