I just finished the first batch of forward control plates, check you PM to see if you were the first nine on the Dibs List. Here's a pic of what is included, the two plates, a longer shifter rod, a extension for the brake pedal along with a hardened cap screw and a bracket to relocate the brake and brake light cable. I still need to get a CD together with some pics and assembly directions but that's easy enough. Oops, the picture was too big. will try again later. Undecided
 Here's two links of the work


And yes that's another slab of aluminium in the background waiting to be sliced and diced.

Savage_Greg, I'm asking $80.00 for a set plus $8.95 for prepaid priority shipping. That brings it to $88.95 to your door. I just finished getting the installation instructions together and am including a CD with some pictures of the set on my bike. Let me know if your interested, I'll put you on the "Dibs" list. I'm starting the second batch Thursday afternoon, gotta slice and dice some more aluminium.

Okay.  Bikes are beginning to come into the shop, so I guess that I can put it on my "I want" list.  Heck, I just spent than much on roses and a darned ol' teddy bear for Valentines Day.

Go ahead and "Dib Me", too Tongue

Eduaro, I'll need to box up a set and check on the shipping to Spain. Could you send me a PM with the address that you want me to ship the set to, I will need it to get the shipping cost. Looking forward to hearing from you.

How far forward did you actually move the controls?  Looks about 4", but don't really have any reference so I can't tell for certain.....

I moved them a full 4 inches forward from thier stock position. If that is too much then just let me know how far forward you would like them to go. I am just finishing two sets that move the pedals 2 1/2 inches and one set that went 5 inches out.

I've just finished the second batch and only cut one 5 inch set which is spoken for. I still have some of the 4 inch sets which is what I've been using and I am 6'2". If you want I'll put you down for a 5 inch set but it will take a week or two before I'm ready to pick up some more plate and start another batch.

Here are two pictures from last year of the 1/2 inch thick set I made, they look the same as the sets I'm selling except for the thickness.
