I thought Reggie at TricLED had something that might work. You could also do up something yourself as it wouldn't take too much work or engineering to make a new pad.
I haven't done it yet but I'm going to take the pad that we to when in installed the Seal boards, weld a short piece of scrap metal (as long as its flat) to the break peddle then cut you may have to cut off a little of the rubber, and there you have it, an extended break peddle cut off length to suit you. Then I took the foot peg rubber and after drilling holes to match you have it. Just don't make it too long.
I MADE MINE 1" HIGHER I USED A SCRAP PIECE OF ALUMINUM CHANEL DRILLED 2 HOLES BOUGHT 2 1 1/4" STAINLESS BOLTS USED ORIGINAL BRAKE PADVisitedStatesMap.jpeg
I used a piece of aluinum & made it about 1.25" wider. I them mounted the oroginal pedal pad on top of the fabricated piece. I have no trouble finding it now.

I see a possible problem with your setup. For many reasons the brake pedal could have some extra travel. For that reason, BRP has setup the floorboards with a release mechanism so the the front of the right floorboard will fall away so you still have full pedal travel. If the pedal pad hits the floorboard before the pedal arm hits the release trigger it could be dangerous. I think it is something to check out.

Thanks for the heads-up & info on the floor board release. I didn't know about that. I had given some thought to the pedal hitting the floorboard, for 1 of many reasons, but figured if I lost that much travel quickly, I'd be in deep doo - doo anyway.

Here is what I did, I hated my brake pedal it was way to small and I feel very unsafe, I am suprised
that the govt. allowed it on the Spyder, one of the vendor/sponsors here ISCI is the manufacturer.
The photos here is of me installing it on my GS/RS but I bet the unit here will work on yours and if not
they will have one that will. the new brake pedal is about 4 in. forward from stock and it is double the
stock one in size. Very high quality materials were used to make it and well worth the price.
I give it a Dave's 5 big thumbs up

This is a very good question.
This is why I asked for a bigger pedal.
I owned the bike 2 weeks and went to move it, it started rolling on my slight incline driveway. I went for the brake a couple times and couldn't seem to hit it in a panic.
Lucky my truck caught it
I learned early that in a panic/ emergency that I need a little bigger brake pad.
Thank you for the post, I guess in the worse case I will need to fabricate a little.
