Easy shifter!

Was thinking why I had to raise my foot to shift up.
On a whim, I lowered the shift lever one notch, and presto! much more natural foot movement, don't even have to think about it. Can hit neutral without checking the light. Worth a try!

I rarely use the light. I DS into neutral all the time.
4, 3, 2, and a nudge, it's easy to feel.

All 5 controls and the bars should be adjusted for rider preference.

Zip you did it the hard way,the rod has left and right handed threads ,loosen the nuts and turn the rod to raise or lower the pedal.

It's adjustable? I may have to try this.

always check your brake light after adjusting the foot lever. You can change it so that it is always on if you are not careful
