 +====== Homemade Forward Extensions ======
 +===== Using a Fabbed Extension Plate ======
 +This mod gained about 4" forward and about 1.5" out to side. \\
 +A longer stainless steel rod was threaded to link to the longer controls. \\ 
 +|2 brackets were fabricated. ((photo by Tedeburn of the XLFORUM https://​www.xlforum.net/​forum/​sportster-motorcycle-forum/​sportster-motorcycle-styles/​sportster-motorcycle-project/​17623-homemade-extended-forward-controls-w-pics?​t=29357))|Then the OEM brackets were bolted on.

-\\+===== Modding Dyna Highway Peg Brackets ===== 
 +In order to accomplish this mod, you need to have pipes that do not obstruct the front frame area. ((Paulie420 of the XLFORUM https://​www.xlforum.net/​forum/​sportster-motorcycle-forum/​sportster-motorcycle-styles/​sportster-motorcycle-custom-finishing/​23604-forward-control-3-extenstion-niiiiiiiiiiiiiice?​t=39020&​highlight=forward+controls)) \\ 
 +There is a 3" extension piece on either side of the frame connected at the original foot peg position. \\ 
 +Then, there is a horizontal piece welded in between those two extensions for strength. \\ 
 +This solves two things; putting the controls 3" out and 1/4" - 1/2" up. \\ 
 + 
 +Then, you have to deal with the brake bar. \\ 
 +Since the pegs are now 3" forward, it won't fit or the brake pedal would be underneath the peg. \\ 
 +The one below was cut and 3" of steel was welded in the middle then heat wrap was installed over the whole bar. \\ 
 + 
 +On the shifter side, a long chrome bar was cut to length and re-threaded for a linkage.

 +====== 03 and Prior Models ====== 
 +===== JayBrake ===== 
 +JayBrake 4" extended forwards. ((jharback of the XLFORUM https://​www.xlforum.net/​forum/​sportster-motorcycle-forum/​sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/​frame-mount-evo-sportster-talk-1986-2003-models/​179114-86-2003-extended-forward-controls?​threadid=1924678http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=222337)) \\ 
 +They'​re expensive but very good quality. \\ 
 +They are made for an FXR but they have an adaptor for them to fit the Sportser. \\ 
 +In addition, a 4" extension plate had to be purchased from another company along with a longer, adjustable shift rod from J&P Cycles. \\ 
 +Total cost was about 800 bucks. 
 + 
 +Jaybrake provided the black tubes (the adaptors) that come out of the frame and attaches to the extension plate. \\
