Default "Reach" Brake pedal lever and shifter linkage

I would like to be able to move my brake pedal forward. As it is right now, there are times where my foot actually ends up Under it, if I try to slide foward on the footboards. Also, the heel/toe linkage barely leaves enough room for my foot.

I know HD sells an extended reach foot pedal, for the low low price of $169.00. Does anybody know of an aftermarket company that may have longer brake pedals and shifter arms? Also, can the footboards be moved forward a couple of inches? I would like to be able to stretch my legs out a bit.

Well do not ask me how I know this but the factory rear brake pedal on the touring bikes IS the extended reach pedal. If you get the standard billet pedal they sell, you will be wanting the reached one which is just like the stock one. ride with a non extended pedal and your going to love the extended factory pedal.

Actually the after market rear brake arm I bought for my 06 E Glide is longer than the stock arm.

Heres his E Bay auction, he also has extended shifter arms.

Thanks. I would like to move everything forward, but want to keep my footboards, and do NOT want go go quite as far as the standard "forward" controls. Again, TY for the leads.

E-Z Brake and E-Z shift. Have them both. Lots better than H-D.

HD also has a kit to move the floorboards forward I believe.

the EZ brake and shift on my Ultra for me. EXPENSIVE but man I love em. But I would love to move the controls even more forward like on the sportster or superglide models. Don't know how my lowers would fit , but at 6ft tall I qish they were moved forward another 1-2".

From what I have found on HDs website, they DO have something that will move the floorboards foward about 2 1/2 inches. Cant remember which models it was for, but I DO remember it was for 97 and newer. Which means, I am screwed, with my 93 FLH. I am not tall (5'10"), but I start to feel jammed up after a bit, and would like the ability to stretch out a bit.
