triumph bonneville rear brake pedal

#1 Unread post by terevel »

I have the above bike, and wish to lower the brake pedal. My triumph dealer has lowered it and said it is now as far as it can go. However, I need it about 1" lower.
Got any ideas ? Thanks.

No clue. Never seen a custom brake pedal for Hinckley Bonnevilles. Why do you need it lowered?

The only possibility would be rearsets, which usually have the brake pedal lower in relation to the footpeg..... the trick being, of course, that the foot peg is now higher and further back. That's a more sport riding position - that's not what you're looking for, is it?

Thanks for reply, the reason I need to lower it is I have a limited use of my right foot.

I took a quick spin through the websites for NewBonneville, Bellacorse, and British-Customs, and I don't see anything except rearsets. You might be in custom fabrication territory, unfortunately.

Two more specialzed forums where you might ask are the Bonneville forum on Delphi: http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/main.a ... le%2Fstart and the twins boards on Truimphrat: http://www.triumphrat.net/twin-talk/
