I had my right pedal on the pilots side break several years ago and cautioned the KR community to reinforce the pedals with a gusset at the 90 degree weld on the horizontal to vertical tube. Mine is the standard RR supplied pedals. The right pedal is susceptible to the greatest amount of flexing from the pilots right pedal to the cable attach on the right side of the cockpit.
