    Since going over to the Austrian Husky I have not had any brake pedal tip issues. Those Italian husky ones very very sacrificial.
    But since we have been upping our rock stuff game I finally had an OEM brake tip come close to breaking off at the NHHA King of the Dez, so I swapped it for the catalog big blue bling alloy version, because my dealer had them on the shelf. Well due to its over size I was worried going into the big Tecate hard ride, because the thing sticks out noticeably. And yes it is trashed after just 1 ride. I am going to install another OEM steel one on. I looked at the new Enduro Engineering one which come in in over size and normal and have mount hole variables,however; they look too strong.....meaning that they probably will not shear when it is really needed. I would rather my tip being sacrificial at the hardest hit than to bend my pedal arm all over the place. That's it just comments..blah blah blah

    EE (bullet proof for sure) and a super good choice for wide and normal with vari mount for closer and farther out.

    why don'cha go for a folding tip? [question: why aren't brake tips and shift tips foldable at a 45° angle like foot pegs? grrrr] if you don't mind modifying your pedal arm (and I don't) this $20 one looks like the ticket:

    only one blue one left (they're the same as tusk though) here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/AIRTIME-NE...SYAAOSw7I5TruWJ:sc:USPSFirstClass!96067!US!-1

    actually, if you don't wanna modify anything but consider tips disposable here are a bunch of $4 tips that look like this (probably borderline cheesy for your tastes):

    I was looking at robert's picture of his foot peg (brake tip) and realized that any gearshift tip that pivoted at that angle might fold a lot when up-shifting. A brake tip pivot would be fine at that angle. I wonder why gear shift tip pivots aren't at any angle; seems like even 60° would provide fall-over protection.

    It looks to me like the 4$ one will not work on a 17 and up bike. The newer chassis pedal angles so the pedal tip obviously has to double angle...price is nice thou...i may try the ee tip..

    I stumbled across 7602's take on the brake pedal tip...

    wow. That's pretty, and pretty robust looking. Stainless steel inserts... Clay does good work.

    I use and prefer the 7602 Racing brake pedal on my 15 TC. The thing is bulletproof, looks good, and it's adjustable front-back.

    Funny, I cut down my brake tip to keep it out of the way. I cut off the outer 1/3. Ive got size 12 boots...

    you have good form then.

    I have to concentrate to keep my toes in and my knees against the tank- although I don't have a problem finding the the brake pedal (size 14). I do usually have to put a stronger spring on or double up on the springs.

    lowering the pegs and moving them back has helped a bit.

    robert- thanx, if that was directed at me. is that a compression spring that works against the master cylinder or what?

    weird that this just came up- a couple of weeks ago I took 2 coils off my "aftermarket" spring to stiffen the brake pedal up even more. It's about perfect right now but I bet 90% of people who rode my bike would panic because the braking action is so deep into the pedal movement.

    I got a piece of aluminum bar stock that I've drilled to make a new pedal stop/adjuster; it's another one of those projects I've slowed down on (hah) and have yet to complete. Since I ride the pedal with my foot now that the pegs are lowered, and the stock adjuster is maxed-out... it's just not an issue anymore it seems.
