SUPER-TECH BRAKE PEDAL for ALL FLOORBOARD BIKES METRIC OR AMERICAN– Softbrake is celebrating their 5th anniversary by introducing their high tech brake pedal for all floorboard motorcycles, metric or American. Softbrake’s unique design is 1.75″ longer, and 22 degrees lower than pre-2O02 OEM pedals with a relocated fulcrum (pivot point). This gives profoundly improved braking control and pedal feedback for safer, more predictable stopping under all circumstances.
All SoftBrake pedals are manufactured from premium quality American steel, then show-chromed for optimum shine. Three different pedal designs are available to match virtually any style motorcycle; plain, slotted, and circle-punched. “If you don’t have a SoftBrake, You’re dragging your feet!!

S&S? POWERED PRO STOCK BIKES WIN ON 2 CONTINENTS–LA CROSSE, WI (September 15, 2006) S&S Cycle announces 2 winners on 2 different continents using the Proven Performance? S&S 160″ Pro Stock motorcycle engine. In addition to Matt Smith’s win at the 52nd annual NHRA Mac Tools U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis on Monday September 4, 2006, Brett Steven’s Racing won the ANDRA AC Delco East Coast Nationals in Sydney, Australia.
Matt Smith, racing for the Torco/Skull Gear/G2 team, set a new track record and entered the Mickey Thompson Six-Second Club with a #1 qualifying run of 6.994. He went on to win the Mac Tools U.S. Nationals by beating Angelle Sampey of the U.S. Army/Suzuki team.
Meanwhile, in Australia during the same weekend, Dion Prowse made his debut riding the S&S powered Pro Stock bike for Brett Stevens Racing. With years of experience as an established sidecar motorcycle rider, Prowse has taken over the riding duties of the Brett Stevens Racing S&S powered Pro Stock Buell? in the Australian Pro Stock Bike Championship for 2006/2007. Before even competing in his first event Prowse became a real championship threat to his competition when putting in some stellar times while completing his licensing and testing procedures in August 2006 at Willowbank Raceway in Queensland, Australia. The Brett Stevens Racing bike is a clone of the bike that Chip Ellis is running in the NHRA, named “Thunder”, and has been unofficially referred to in the states as “Thunder Down Under”.
Under the guidance of S&S Cycle’s Senior Manager of Racing & Customer Services, Charlie Hadayia, Prowse and the team lived up to all expectations in their pre-season preparations when they were able to record times of 7.27 and 7.25 seconds on their final two licensing passes while shutting off early. Both of these passes were under the current Australian Pro Stock Bike record.
“I knew I had to nail the light and I think there were only centimeters in it at the finish line,” said Prowse. “I am totally new to this bike and it was my first ever championship drag racing event, so to take home the winner’s trophy in a professional bracket is just amazing. We have really started to get our heads around the S&S powered Buell and it is only going to get better as we step it through the season. I would really like to thank Brett Stevens and S&S for giving me the chance to ride this awesome machine.”
“For a rookie rider to win in his first race is awesome, especially knowing that 10 days earlier he had never made a full pass on any drag bike,” said Charlie Hadayia, Sr. Manager of Race & Customer Services for S&S. “For them to win is an amazing accomplishment for the whole team!”
