Rear brake pedal

I've had alot of seat time on my new fiddy this week and the one thing that bugs me is the rear brake pedal. I can be doing awsome wheelies, and then wind up ruining them when my foot misses the brake pedal and I have to bail. Does anyone know if I can mabye bend the thing so it sticks out farther? I want to get one of those handlebar mounted rear brake levers, but $90 is pretty damn steep. Is there a way to make your own handbrake? That foot brake is just a pain in the *** and I was wondering if anyone has and fixes.

Just get the Joker machine brake extension. A few riders on the board have them. They'll vouch for it.

just bend it , and when you crash it take the time to rebend the brake because it will move out of position and while wheeling you will reach for it and it wont be there...... loop.... crash...scrape LOL just bend it works fine.
