Adjustable brake rod

[cribby]

Hi all.

Since I bought the SF3, I could never get on with the position of the brake pedal so I've had an adjuster put in the middle to give some adjustment, what do you think?

Just need to get it powder coated black and that's it.

I can't take the credit for this though, it was my mate Phil who is in his 60's and incredibly gifted.

Well done..!!

that should give you a range of motion. See many complaining about the pedal position. Especially when putting on floorboards...:2thumbs: congrats..!!

That looks great maybe BRP could make there rod that way and have a
one size fits all as part of their UFIT system.:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

That is awesome. I would love to be able to adjust my pedal height.

Very nice mod.... I'm 6'2" and have my UFit set to the #5 position. I've found that the most comfortable riding position for me is to keep my knees in close to the gas tank. I like to rest my feet on the frame rail when I ride. The regular position for the brake pedal sucks so I had mine modified by a local metal fabrication shop. I rocked the pedal forward slightly and out 4 inches so I can rest my foot on the framerail and simply turn my foot outward slightly to use the brakes. It works great for me and it's a whole hell of a lot more comfortable.

:yes::yes::yes:

I did the same until I got my foot boards. They made a huge difference for me. Doesn't help the brake pedal any but you have already handled that.

Is the angle of the floor boards adjustable?
