    Suzuki C50 floorboard position

    Hi has anyone successfully moved the floorboards and controls back 2 or 3 inches on the C50?

    I'd prefer to be less stretched out (yup, short) and that would give me a whole lot more choice of foot position.

    Without having one in front of me, it is usually a matter of making two brackets to seat them further back, then shortening the shift linkage and brake linkage.

    Not hard to do. Might take a weekend to do if you had a welder, angle grinder, and a thread tap & die set.

    Hi, thanks. Unfortunately the brake side is a bit tricky as there is an exhaust pipe in the way. I wondered if anyone had worked out a way to do it.

    I've taken a look and the exhaust doesnt look to me like it would be in the way, given the floorboard already sits further out than the exhaust.

    Make bracket extensions to go on the stock brackets to bring the pedals and boards back,

    If it's something I reckon I could do in my small workshop, any custom chopper shop up there could do it in a week or less.
