Can someone tell me if there is any other way to lower the brake pedal in addition to the concentric adjustment of the toe piece

Thanks,
Glen

If I'm not mistaken, you can unbolt it from where it attaches and reinstall it in a lower position...

But, I dont think that can be done with the brake pedal.
It can, however, be done with the gear shift lever.

I've done this on other bikes. On my Kawasaki the brake rod was adjustable - a lock nut and the rod screws back and forth. The rod on the Brembo is adjustable but it might not work the same as the Kawasaki. The front Brembo is real touchy (locking up if its not happy) so be careful with the rear.

I don't know who it was BigGlen but way back when Tuono first came out a member glued a alloy button he made to the lever where the brake switch contacts the lever,that area also works as the lever stop.He said all he did then was re-adjust the rod to match the lower setting of the lever.I looked at doing it & it looked like a good fix to me,but I got used to it as it was or was to lazy,one or the other.Have a look & see what you think.
All the best.

Acculign make a different eccentric for the pedal which gives a bigger range of motion, or so I'm told. I haven't seen one in the flesh.
