Spacers for shifter pegs and brake pedal
I have the footboard extensions from Eglidegoodies that move the stock footboards 1" out. I like them a lot but now, my shifter pegs and brake pedal are no longer aligned with my feet.
I need to find 1" chrome spacers to correct the problem. 1 side of the spacer must be male and 1 side female.
Do you know where I can find them? Thanks

I did the same thing a few years ago on my chopper but I can't remember where I bought the spacers. I'll keep looking.

The whole idea is so there not aligned with your feet.
I have the KURYAKYN floor board relocation kit which moves the floor boards out 1" and forward 1". This lets you stretch out a little more and your legs arn't pinned to the side of the tank.
They also give you a little more room to move your feet around out side of the controls.
After you ride with them for a little while (a few of hours) your body memory will adjust to the change of position and the only thing you'll notice is your a little more comfortable.

Get a 3/4" chrome spacer (your local HD dealer probably has some, that's where I found mine) and a longer bolt for the shifter peg. Get a bolt long enough to go through the shift lever with enough thread exposed to put a nut onto it. Use a hot topper on the nut and it will look like factory.
I did this but couldn't find a bolt that would recess into the shifter peg, so I got a black socket head bolt and had a local machine shop machine the head down so it was flush with the peg. It's almost invisible unless you get down and really look for it.
Also, 3/4" spacer is plenty and with the amount of force used on the shift lever, I don't think I would want to go any longer....

I recently addd Soos 1" spacers and really like the new position.
I like the new setup on the brake side , but the shifter was too far in.
I didn't want a heel shift setup so I went with this.
Kuryakyn Spacer # 1045 from Drag Specialties.
Sorry about the dirt and grease , but this bike is really comfy to ride now.....
The grease fitting was a great mod also , while you're at it.....
