• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Is there a brake pedal lowering kit for a 2014 RSS?

If I rest my foot on the peg like I do on my motorcycle - center of the boot - the front of my foot hits the brake pedal slightly. I find I must rest the ball of my foot on the peg to keep from tripping the brake switch, then change position to brake.

I don't like floorboards; not an answer for me.
 
Not finding anything, I had a pedal modified at a local machine shop.

What I was after was a stance similar to what I have on my Honda Super Cub 125 and every previous motorcycle I have owned. If I rest the center of my foot on the peg, my boot doesn't touch the brake pedal. I can simply rotate my foot to brake without repositioning my foot.

I first put together a mock up, to get the exact position of the pedal that I needed. I took that mock up mounted on a used pedal arm to the shop, and they welded on a couple of new pieces.

Works great for me now.

The order of my photos got scrambled on upload. Photos 1 and 3 are the mock up, two is the Super Cub, 6 is before, 4 and 5 are after.
