The FIRST SAFETY MOD I do to ALL Harley's!

- Over years and across extensive miles of testing, the Kuryakyn Extended Brake Pedal has earned my unwavering endorsement. The stock brake pedal's design, crafted by Harley engineers, poses significant discomfort. At 5'-8" tall with a men's US shoe size of 9.5, I find the stock position terribly inconvenient. It's short, lacks forward extension, and sits at an uncomfortably high angle, resulting in poor ergonomic support for both touring and training scenarios.

Holy Crap! I just finished doing this to my Street Glide and all I can say is "WOW!" This completely changes the feel of the brake. It is so rare for ONE part to make such a big difference.
Thank you, brother.
Great video. I did this about a year ago and don't regret it. I also added the extended brake pedal pad made a huge difference.
Nice!! thx for sharing.
Ryan...Thanks for the recommendation and "How to" video and your channel in general. I am not exactly mechanically inclined but just installed them on my '16 RGS and could not be happier. Huge benefit and so much more natural/comfortable to use the rear brake. Thanks again...
This pedal was one of the first things I installed on my 2001 FLH... and when I replaced that bike, the same pedal easily transferred to my 2017 FLHTK.
I've been riding for 40+ years.... Never had an issue. I'm 5'11" with a size 13 boot.
For me, I see this as a preference and an unnecessary modification for my bikes. It may be for better some, but don't say it is a must-have 1st modification.
Once you ride a bike with a different/ “better” pedal you will likely feel different about this. Maybe not, but that is why there are so many different mods for the Harleys. Ride on!
@@crossfitfortuna I doubt it. It's called muscle memory.
Each to their own. Thx for watching. I will say, training for emergency maneuvers, tight maneuver, and training and on the fast track, this mod is a must. I use it daily on my police bike and train others. It's a must have IMO. Ride safe.
@@RyanUrlacher Exactly my point! In your opinion.... It's not an absolute.
Softbrake makes one.
They said that they sell tons to LEOs.
Tons of motormen get busted legs when falling due to foot getting stuck under the pedal. Def always making sure my foot isn’t in a place where it can get stuck if something happens.
Gonna get this.
Thanks for the vid !
rock on 🤘
I bought the SoftBrake last year and it has made a world of difference. The extended model wouldn't fit my Road Glide Ultra but the extension wasn't what I needed, it was the lower position. It makes it so much easier to work the back brake while keeping the bike under a load during slow maneuver's.
Great tip, I've always struggled with the rear brake placement on my 2010 road king. I just thought it was because I was used to riding a bike with pegs. Unfortunately you don't appear to stock anything for a bike made prior to 2014. There are a lot of pre-2014 touring bikes still on the road, I won't mention any competitors by name here, but most other online parts dealers carry the girder style for pre-2014 bikes and they are actually in stock too. I will return when the parts arrive for an install refresher, thanks for the video.
Really liked this extended pedal in my previous touring models. Wanted to use it on my 23 CVO SG, but tech thought that after installation, it would set too close to the mustache shaped crash bars (safety issue?). So, I kept the stock rear brake pedal.
thx for sharing.
This is one of the first mods that I do to my new bikes too! Love it.
Glad to hear you keep them in stock!!
Nice!! thx for sharing.
I like angle and hight of the stock, it is better to slightly out rather then straight down when your leg is extended but I would like it bumped out further like the replacement
I did this mod on my '94 Soft tail and it made a huge difference with my size 13 boots. Currently with a 2010 CVO Touring I haven't had an issue with the stock pedal, but now that I see the difference...
Please note if you want to install it on a 2017 up FLHTK with Lower Fairings you will have to bend it a bit to the right so it won’t hit / interfere with the Right Fairing… no big deal !
I like to do my own maintenance on my hardy davidson and am thankful for the pass down of knowledge and learning from video's out there.
You are spot-on about the stock brake levers. Because of this pedal issue, I tipped my bike on its side.
Installed one on my 24 RG. I can tell that I'll like it, eventually. After 13 years on two Road Glides, muscle memory has me messed up, my foot keeps going to the old location. A few more rides and I'll get re-trained.
One more thing to add to the grocery list of things to change.
@ryanurlacher Your videos are fantastic! I am in the market for a new bike. Safety is my number one concern. I come from riding a BMW GS. One of my big concerns about the Harley's is the weight and lower ground clearance. Seems like to me if you find yourself running into a corner a bit to fast or somebody pulls out in front of you that the Harley will likely take longer to stop and be a bit less maneuverable than an Adventure Bike. Have you spent any time on an Adventure Bike? I would really appreciate your opinion on this. Thanks!
2014 Stock Street Glide - It asks if I want to purchase with or without lowers?? Can you explain the difference and if I need that?
This a main problem on Fat Bob 2018+ Swap rear brake foot lever is must!
Absolutely. The stock one sucks. It made my hip and knee go crazy.
First thing I did , ten years ago,when I got my SGS. By far the best money spent, and I’ve spent a lot on it!! Oh I should mention that my LAB gripper phone mount survived after a crash last year that bent the bars to the tank. So that’s probably number two on Best Buy list.
Thanks for sharing. Glad you're okay!! BIKER GRIPPER IS THE BEST ==> shop.lawabidingbiker.com/collections/bikergripper
Funny all this time owning my street glide I now know mine has this installed already when I got the bike.
I just picked up a 2020 street glide, and i have this in the pipeline to get. It was my first time riding a harley, and the stock one was extremely uncomfortable.
Scrappy - best modification I made, but it wasn’t the first. Changed mine after attending a local PD “Share the Road” seminar and noticed others with lower brake pedals had much easier time with slow-speed maneuvering. Definitely made a difference. 🙏🏻 🤜🏼.
Thanks for sharing, bro. Good to hear from ya. Stay safe!!
With this brake pad modification work with a 2008 road King classic?
on a 20 20 streetglide does the rear O ring go back on or remain removed like the front O ring for the new brake pedal
I have a Road Glide, and with the fixed fairing doesn't that sit on the crash bar for support? Do you need to do a different procedure for the shark nose?
30 years ago you could adjust the brake pedal and floorboards, later one's you have to modify indeed, my 1994 adjusted low, 1998 non-adjustable high, 2013 also non-adjustable but low again, 2016 high again ..... modified myself to low position, what do they want at H-D ???
Hi Ryan would this fit a 2007 Ultra Classic Electra Glide?
Cool video. I didn’t see where you linked the torque wrench nor was I able to find it on your website
It's in the description below the video. Here it is. 🔧 Heavy Duty Digital Torque Wrench Combo Kit 🔧 (affiliate link)
amzn.to/3tojupX
I’m 6”2 with a size 13 shoe . This is a game changer. Don’t hesitate to do this
Do you know when #9672 will be back in stock ? The pedal for with fairing.
Does anybody know where I can get a chrome transmission shroud cover for my 2014 dyna low rider?
I just changed mine out and WOW a difference! I'm about 6'6" and a size 15 to 16 shoe. So much better, not perfect yet. When I get a longer seat it'll be perfect.
I just bought the 2024 Hydra Glide, will the kuryakn break pedal fit
Ryan, I am 5,7 29-30 inseam. I tried an extended brake pedal. I found it very hard to get adequate brake pressure for complete stopping power, I sold mine!
Use your front brake...that's where the power is.
@@alm4132 always !
Quick question; is this mod better than purchasing adjustable brake linkage?
Anything for 2013 and older touring?
You talk about being avg at 5'8" with 9 and a1/2 foot size (US) So but what more would help is.. What is your inseam? the stretch of the leg would be more important as far as the reach goes, no? Also, youdon't like it high, but if someone does have a short inseam persay, they might not be able to reach the pedal. So, it's all how the rider likes and fits more so.. I would think.. Anyway, good subject to bring to light and I have seen quite a few of our vids by now and have enjoyed them all.. TCRS D.
can these be installed with foot pegs as well
OMG, too funny! You and I are the same height and shoe size, and I did the exact same mod within two weeks of owning my 2023 RKS. It makes a WORLD of difference! Great endorsement that every H-D rider should do, regardless of the rider's height, shoe size, etc.
Right on!
We have shorter rider using them. Perfect.
Don't forget the HD chrome-plated lead weight for the ensuing recalls.
Ryan, could you link is information to your riding classes? I'd love to learn low speed skills from a police officer.
The extended reach pedal is a game changer. I can now pivot on the ball of my feet and cover the brake pedal without lifting my foot. Now I don't have to worry that in a panic situation I'll chomp down on the rear brake. The position of the original brake made me understand why a lot of guys don't use the rear brake.
Nice!! thx for sharing.
That’s not true. With lower pedal , the ability of pressing of pedal and control is much compromised. The reason why Harley is using it that way is science and well studied.
Please do not promote articles that completely compromise the controls.
Do you find that it is more likely to press the brake too hard and risk locking up the rearend with the OEM vs the Kuryakyn EBP?
No.
Does that work with lowers and radiators on a CVO 2014 can see any information about radiators. And you’re right Harleys brakes set up sucks been wanting to change mine for years.
Yes, we have a model with lowers and without. Radiator won't matter. => shop.lawabidingbiker.com/products/kuryakyn-extended-brake-pedal-for-harley-touring-2014-2023?variant=42524179890332
When I look it up, it says it does not fit CVO’s. That’s on their site. I don’t know.
Simple mod is one one my favorites, Im 5’ 7’’ . Add the Kuryakyn floor board spacers.
Nice
15 RG UL sits low 17/18 wheels kick stand drags first, then floor boards. Friends 22 RG UL sits 1 1/2’’ higher never rubs
I agree, it's a must. I'm 6'6" and wear a size 16 boot and this is a God send.
This is good to know. Same height, slightly smaller foot. What brand did you end up going with ?
100 % agree, excellent video. The stock one in my opinion is actually unsafe in an emergency.
You got that right. Unsafe for sure. Thx for watching.
I put the Thrashin Supply adjustable brake lever on and couldn’t agree more about the Harley brake arm being awful. This looks like a great option as well and less expensive. Ride on!
Thx for watching. I've tested these for 10 years now and on my police bike I use daily. Solid product and good price compared to others like you say.
Great product, but I did the poor man version. I ran the bar adjusters to draw the pedal lower. Way easier and way cheaper. Not the exact same result, but it definitely lowers that sky high pedal that is arguably unsafe, agree with you on that one haha.
Thanks for the info!
Have done this on my last 2 Road Glides. Game changer for sure!
Nice!! thx for sharing.
Put one on my 22 SG since I have size 13. All the difference in the world!
Will this peddle work for the Heritage Softail?

Mine is perfect for me the way it is. HD finally made something for small people. 😄
And with a twin cooled M8 is it any different?
Nope. fits fine. just put one on a M8 bike. fitment here ==> shop.lawabidingbiker.com/products/kuryakyn-extended-brake-pedal-for-harley-touring-2014-2023?variant=42524179890332
See, I'm glad you made this video because i have thought my brake pedal was always too damn high, but thought it was just my opinion!
Glad to help. Yah, I think it was 2014 and newer when they went to this new ridiculously short brake pedal. Nobody can explain why they did that?
Yeah, whoever at HD came up with that was ergonomically stupid@@RyanUrlacher
Old dirt biker trick, spray Aqua net inside of pad and on metal. It’ll slide on like butter and hold when it dries.
Good tip. thx
Ryan did you put one on your PD bike?
yup
Terima kasih sharing nya kawan 👍👍👌
Just did this to mine. Major improvement
Nice!! thx for sharing.
I have a shovelhead i bought brand new in 1980 and has well over 500,000 miles FJB
Now see what you did!! Can't find these in stock anywhere!! 🤣
Great concept but not enough for the work and cost. IMO. Thank you
I hated my 15' ultra just for that reason. There wasn't a fix back then. I sold it
I have a stock brake pedal, I keep by foot resting on the pedal, it does not trigger brake lights, there is no time lag when braking. The extended pedal should probably benifit taller riders, just my opinion
It would be hard keeping it there all day when riding 10 days and 4,000 miles. Riding cross country would be uncomfortable for sure doing that.
Agreed 👍
I do the same mod asap just like you do. Stock lever just sucks.
👍
Does it work with soft lowers? (Rain chaps)
Haven't tried. Believe it would. Just get the one for "with lowers". Again, never actually tried.
Great Tip 😀👍 Steve from Bundaberg Qld Australia 🇦🇺🕺
Does this work on a Twin Cam Limited?
I did this on a 2010 Road King so should work for you as well.
yup ==> shop.lawabidingbiker.com/products/kuryakyn-extended-brake-pedal-for-harley-touring-2014-2023?variant=42524179890332
I agree 💯!
👍
TY Ryan
U betcha. thx for watching.
I did it also though my shoe size 11.
I put one on my Road King, the stock pedal annoyed the hell out of me.
I could never understand why harley made such uncomfortable brake pedal positioning. My boot cleat always caught in it. I could never arch my foot back that far. As always, another company fixes hds junk.
I have to admit, getting that damn cotter pin back in was a bear to say the least. Couldn’t do it myself. Needed wife’s help
This should be the factory brake pedal. I mean who does the stock pedal work for??
I agree!!!!!!!!
Let me lower longer Billy problems. You lose break pressure leverage because of longer and everything like that. It should be short and I have no love and boots or living and a 1/2 boot so I usually just put my feet on an eighth so my feet. Sets comfortably so I guess it's for certain people with small feet.
Just one of many many things that Harley should’ve included on the damn thing to begin with.
I don't even use my back brake. They are linked anyway.
Love your show. Much usefull info but for the love og god put your hat on right!
I don't have good experience with the brand 'Kuryakin'. Their chrome finish does NOT hold up well. Give it 3 years and it'll start looking like crap.
Just bought a 2001 dyna in IMMACULATE condition. All Harley Davidson parts except the grips and pegs, both kuriakin. That is the only chrome on the entire bike that is flaking or has any damage at all.
Same reason I avoid Kuryakin parts. I don't think the part I added made it two years before the chrome began flaking and rust started.
Agreed 100%. With that said most aftermarket chrome doesn’t last long at all.
Wouldn’t ride without one. Can comfortably cover the brake.
Rock on. thx for sharing.
Hmmm, really a shame that you didn't support an American Small Business - Softbrake. They do a great job.
I support all who make solid products. I've tested these for 10 years now and on my police bike I use daily. Solid product. But, i'm sure there are others. So many small companies I can't keep track of them all. Ride safe.
Every time I walk out to my shop I look for something to repair or change on my Challenger, oh wait that was HD. Sorry, not sorry.
Did this on my 2019 Road Glide Ultra as well as my 2022 CVO Road Glide Limited. This should be standard. The stock pedal is unusable. Unusable safety equipment is dangerous.
Totally agree.
Whoever owned my bike before me did this. Never knew different and never want to. Other people see it and ask how I got the pedal flat. I’m always like. 🤷♂️
Nice! 👍
I just cannot see spending $130.00 on this and it benefitting me. Never noticed an issue.
Try it, you'll see. Especially when training for safety on the roadways. Ride safe.
It allows you to comfortably cover the rear brake.
@@RyanUrlacherCouldn’t agree more.
Sell it?
Kuryakyn is now out of business
They aren't. Turn 14 is in charge of the Kuryakyn band now. I explain in my video. Check it out.
@RyanUrlacher I used to sell quite a lot of the extended brake pedals, best product that they make.
I can see the benefit of having the brake pedal lower.
But farther out is ridiculous.
You still must move your leg forward to apply the brake.
I am 5'7" and own a 93 FXRS-CONV and a 2010 FLHTC I have short legs.
If anything, I want to reduce my leg travel to the pedal not increase it.
If it came in a shorter version I would consider it. I basically like the idea.
Like my 93 FXRS-CONV and all the Triumphs and Nortons I have owned hitting the rear brake was just twisting your foot sideways.
You practically already have the pedal covered with no leg movement whatsoever.
You're also able to get your feet to the ground faster to stabilize the bike while stopping.
Using that longer pedal could be the difference between dropping the bike and keeping it upright due to the increased distance the leg needs to travel to the ground during a stopping event.
I'll take the pedal position on my FXRS-CONV and my British bikes anytime over my Electra Glide.
Kuryakyn has the worst customer service ever, their light system is now useless as the app stopped working and they have no plans to fix .
Sometimes I think the design guys at Harley are all complete nincompoops. Practically everyone wears boots when they ride. Boots are bigger than shoes and the stock brake pedal and often the shifter lever are too short. They get in the way of just being able to place your feet square on the floorboards. The extra 1 inch or so of length makes it so you can plant your boots on the floorboards without crap being in the way.
I watched the video and you never said the obvious answer install a Honda or Yamaha V. Suzuki makes a big V.. that's always the safest thing to do
You're in the wrong neighborhood little boy.
That’s not true. With lower pedal , the ability of pressing of pedal and control is much compromised. The reason why Harley is using it that way is science and well studied.
Please do not promote articles that completely compromise the controls.
Thanks for watching. As a full time police motorcycle officer and instructor, I disagree. I've run both stock and this one. This one is not only more ergonomic, it's safer.
10 Million riders swear by / love this mod, an yet... does H-D listen to it's riders ?
Simple answer: Not only No, but proudly Hell NO ! . . . ☆
I wouldn’t buy any of their garbage… If it was Harley, yes… Just like Advanblack…junk!
I actually have tested these pedals for like 10 years now on many bikes. and on my daily police bike while working. solid and no issues. Just FYI
Yup all Chinese junk
