Kuryakyn Extended Brake Pedal

[MDO]

I had mentioned in my FW modifications post that I could not stand the stock brake pedal.

It was just unnatural for me to use it.

I thought you might like to see a before & after photo, keeping in mind my picture taking stinks.

Here is the before/stock pedal



Here is the Kuryakyn extended pedal



As you can see, it moves the pedal a few inches forward & lowers it a few inches.

It allows me to use the entire floorboard & more importantly for me, If I'm in heavy traffic, I can ride while keeping the pedal covered for quick response & I like that. Another nice feature is that it has a brass bushing with a grease fitting for lubing it without removal.

They can be had for about $90

Nice Pics! I have had mine on for a while now and love it! I also added the floor board extenders from DK; keeps your boots away from hot pipes! If you are tall this pedal works great!:Santa:

I forgot to mention 1 thing. If you order the extended brake pedal, they had 2 options, with & without lowers.

For the Freewheeler, I ordered the Kuryakyn Extended Brake Pedal For Harley Touring 2014-2018, without lowers. This is a link to Revzilla, they had it for the best price I could find, no tax for me (in Missouri) & free shipping.

I'm assuming the other 1 is for a Tri-Glide. They also have them in black.

Have you drilled and tapped a grease fitting for the brake pedal?

Our bikes used to come that way including a zerk fitting on the neck bearings and the shifter shaft

The brake pedal and the shifter shaft are fairly easy to do

Greasing them both at least 1 a year IMO makes a huge difference JMO

I mentioned in the 1st post, one of the reasons I like this pedal so much is that it came with a brass bushing & a grease fittings already installed, making routine maintenance easier.

Well worth it IMO. On the install, I removed the entire floorboard, brackets & all. To me, that was easier.

Do you have a link to the boards your talking about? They sound cool.

 

[Sunman]

One of the first changes I made on my FW. Have had one on my 2 wheelers in the past. Makes a big difference in comfort for me.

Jack, shoot me an email. We can fix you up with some ovals for less.

Also, the Extended Brake Arms are the bomb. Much More Comfortable....and come with a zerk, as MDO mentioned.

I have one on my TG and on my Softail....world of difference.

Hi Michael,

Nice pics. Can you point me to the supplier of the highway pegs? They are just what I need.

Thanks!

Hey Lewis,

The highway pegs are from Ciro, (not Kuryakyn) & are very adjustable. The foot pegs are a HD basic large pair.

I didn't like the look of the engine guards on the trike (it's just me), so I went with these.

 

[Dameatman]

I don't want a engine guard on my trike either. I was searching for a whiskers bar for the Freewheeler, but they only seem to make them for Soft Tails. The set up you have would be ideal. You wouldn't have the Kuryakyn part number for the bracket coming off the footboard handy? I searched the site to no avail.

I will get the P/N's as soon as I can. They are in my shop & I'm not going out there, it's too cold

Perfect, These are what I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to go into the cold to get the part numbers

Very uncomfortable with the toe of my brake foot being under the brake pedal costing that extra split second...and the unnatural angle of the stock pedal itself so this extended pedal was my first modification. Money well spent and as mentioned the zerk fitting is a definite plus. :clapping:

I agree & on my ride home from CA to MO, I could not for the life of me figure out how anyone thought that the OEM pedal was a good design. It was my biggest gripe, followed by the grips & I fixed that with new Avon's.

Or set the linked brake system up to be activated by the front lever and just have the foot pedal hold the bike at lights or slight inclines.

The HD dealer in town that I chose for any needed service has done that for a couple disabled Veterans. I am happy with the current linked brake set-up. I think it works great.

 

[Saammi]

Had the dealer install an extended brake pedal before purchase. Glad I did
