Brake pedal height

[T»n»r»]

Here's a quicky:  Can I raise my 955 brake pedal? Ò I find it a bit low.

There's a little bit of adjustment on the actuating rod where it goes into the master cylinder but not much. Pain to get at as well.

There's actually quite a lot of adjustment. One turn on the thread of the adjuster is magnified at the pedal about 5 times. The easiest way I found to adjust is to unhook the spring, then take the pivot bolt right out. Then the pedal drops off with the adjuster attached. And while it's out you can put some copper slip on the pivot to keep that happy.

Strangely enough,thats the first thing i've done on all three Tigers that i've had,with the standard set up must be a lot double jointed ankles about!!!

On all other bikes I•ve had, I•ve had to adjust the brake pedal the other way.  I•m 6•4" so my foot tends to point downwards on the peg.  My point is, even I need to RAISE the lever like everyone else.  So who is the standard set-up for?  :?:
