Hate to sound like a dumbass but can anyone post pics of the forward controls. I looked at 04 Ridgeback and just determine that for sure if they are there or not.
Again sorry to sound like a dumb shit!!!:flag: :hi:

This is the shifter side on my bike and I have the extensions. If your mounting block is as long as this one then you have the extensions. Another way to tell is measure your shift rod. If its about 16" then you have the extension.

Thanks Ray...I just went and measured my shift rod and it is 17 inches from the center of each nuckle on each end..Sounds like I do have the extentions.
I did notice on both side the shifter and brake mount in to billet pieces and not the frame directly...
Thanks for your help-..Now I am really confused as the course of action bars or seat!!!:loony:

Are you asking if you have forward or mid controls? or are you trying to find out if you have the extensions?

I think your 2004 has the same front motor mount setup as posted above. Your forward controls bolt to the front polished (mine is chromed) motor mount

Right


and right has a adapter plate that goes onto the motor mount then the control goes over it and bolts thru it and to it

Hey Gas, thanks for responding...I am trying to determine if I have extentions. All this started with the fact my bars force me to stretch out farther than i really want. I have to choose weather to change to the 08 Ridgeback bars or just go to a push seat. Then we got on the subject of do i have extentions or not. Keep im mind my legs are fine just the bars are too far out front for my liking. My foward controls do mount to the front mount but I measured the shift rod and it measures just over 17 inches including the front and rear nuckles...Your thoughts are welcomed..:2thumbs:

I'm not sure 100% but maybe an upgrade to a newer set of bars that have more pullback would be in order. Also, you might be able to throw on a 1" riser to help... there are lots of threads on this idea. I know Alhall did it.
