All GSA's:
The GSAs all have this dual sport brake pedal, for standing on the pegs. It comes in handy when standing, riding dirt! Your foot does not have to bend to reach the pedal, vs a sitting position. I leave mine in the standing position, because I ride dirt a lot. Work with it and you'll see how it works. Its spring loaded, so push and lever it into place and so on for the reverse. Thats it

Well not exactly *ALL GSA's* have this special "dual" foot brake pad......
Only the GSA models with ABS have the "hi/lo" foot brake pad.
My '07 GSA non-equipped ABS bike has the standard single "foot" brake pad.
push it forward and lower or push forward and swing up if it's already down should get it off its detent lock position. It is spring loaded. I'd go look at mine but as I mentioned...
Gee whiz, I finally got it up and then tried to get it back down, nope, fingers got tired so I quit.

They even made a non ABS GSA. Most of the bikes have it. '07 here also.
Special order...sir....built to my liking!
Back when you could order a bike with or without some of those silly options...!
