Shifter Pedal Extender or Lever
« on: July 09, 2013, 12:45:34 PM »

Hello guys and gals I am looking for either a shifter lever that has a little more bend out to the floor board or a pedal extension for shifting. To curve your toe in to shift is getting real old I need to bring out the pedal about an 1" any ideas?   :2vrolijk_21:

Shifting with your toe? This must mean you are up-shifting (not gear but with the direction). I almost never put my toe under the shifter and lift. I use the highway pegs exclusively and press down on my shifter pegs. I have the rear as low as it goes and adjusted the front up high enough to slide my riding boot under it, for when I am really tired or riding short slow distance, before I raise my foot to the crash bar peg. My issue is space between the shifter pegs, my boot may wedge between them. I bet they make longer shifter levers, but try to raise it first.
