Thanks, Jay! For $22, the big foot shifter worth checking out. Anyone else use this? I'm wondering if anyone has had the big foot shifter punch a hole in the case after a get off. Did you see the post suggesting using a bolt, flat washers, and a nut through the brake pedal to raise the height? I tried it and it works great. I used as short a bolt as possible and only one nut (no jam nut). I wanted to minimize the leverage if the bottom of the brake pedal hits the immovable mover. The effective brake pedal height is perfect. I haven't tried it with muddy boots. But, it works well when my boots are wet. John
