rubber pad for brake pedal on gl1800

[ontheroad]

I would like to raise the height of my brake pedal, looking for a rubber pad something like a emergency brake pad. Anyone ever do this. I have a gl1800 with a motor trike conversion.

if your brake pedal is like every other brake pedal on every bike iv'e ever worked on. there should be an adjustable rod between the pedal and the master cyl. this rod will have jamb nuts. keep in mind if you adjust that rod to the desired position for the brake pedal then you will more than likely need to adjust the brake switch. which is also easy. the switch will be plastic with a plastic nut that will adjust it.

if memory serves me correctly the jam nut is a 12 mm and the adjusting nut is a 10 mm and could be partially concealed by the rubber boot.
