Looking for reduced reach controls ????

[armyrider2008]

I just bought my wife a 2012 Harley Tri-Glide. She is short and needs the foot controls to be closer along with a good reduce reach seat. Anyone have any suggestions. Is this something I am going to need to have modified or is there something out there on the market, everything I have seen so far is not for Trikes?

Don't look for Trike parts. You have a two wheel motorcycle front 1/2 and an automobile rear 1/2 with a fiberglass body. A seat is a seat is a seat. No trike seats. Lots to pick from. Custom might be the way to go. Move her forward and down. All control kits move foot controls away from the driver. Don't think you will find any to move closer to the driver.

I have the reduced reach seat that I used on my Ultra Classic . I swap it out when I ride 1 up , gives me a lower center of gravity. This will drop u down and forward . Try a demo from your local dealer and see if it helps before u buy .

I have a Harley reach seat on my 2010 Ultra Classic, it moves me forward and down. Just one small bolt to change it. I had it installed when I bought the bike. It will remain on when they get my trike conversion done. If you are close I will let you try it.

Have a billet block made for under the brake pedal pad to raise it. Get her some riding boots with thick soles.

She has to be comfortable to have the confidence to ride!

Fuzzy, I suggested going to the local INdy or machine shop and having the brake pedal cut and an extension welded in. Grind smooth and powder coat or paint and she could have it any length she desired. I'd retain the horizontal part to make it easy to change pads on the brake pedal. <br />

Thanks for all the comments, went and got a reduced reach seat and it seems to being working out much better.
