V/H sidewinder Z1 with drum brake was created by z1kzonly
I would like to see some modifications to use the V/H sidewinder
for the rear brake pedal - footpeg adjustment.
The engine is not in the frame yet. So I can't align the header yet.
Just planning stuff in my head. Have everything I would need to cut, bend, weld. Then a re-chrome to make it look good.
Thanks for any pictures.

i think you normally have to run brake pedal over footpeg to clear it B)

Still recovering,some days are better than others.

Thanks Guys, just hoping to see some pics for a visualization.
Is visualization a word? Or did I just make it up?
Like George W used to make up words?

I will keep looking, I know that I have a picture (somewhere)

Some 1000's cleared the pipe or they moved the foot pegs. The 900's went up and over the foot peg.

I will get some pics of my friends he went under and used stock stuff and an torch to bend the pedal. He used the center stand tabs to weld a pivot axle to. The pic will be worth a thousand words when i get it. he is the knight rider on here.
