Need dealer to fit shorter brake rod?

[Hoginedgewood]

Wife was researching moving the foot pegs back, shorter rod. She came up with "need to have the dealer do the work so the Can-am computer can update the bike to the new pedal location"
I'm smelling a major sales pitch there. Please confirm the nonsense.

That's not a 'sales pitch' you're smelling!! It's pure, unadulterated, but very sloppy bovine faecal matter! :yikes:

OMG that's bad. It's an easy peasy job to do.

Simple job that can be done with normal shop tools and in your driveway.
No computer needed.

What the rest said. The computer has no idea where your pedal is. I'd run away from that shop FAST but 1st I'd speak with the shop manager and let him know what someone there is trying to scam you over.

F3 it is about a 3 minute job ............ 2 minutes if you have needle nose pliers in your back pocket. I disconnect mine a lot of the time when the brake caliper is off of the disk just to make sure nobody accidentally steps on the brake.
