I have found that the stock pegs on my 2004 1000 CBR are very hard to slip from the ball of your foot, to shift, and then back on. It's like you have to remove your entire boot form the peg, slip it under the shifter, hit your shift, and then careflly extract your boot to place back on the peg.

Should I file the pegs teeth down a little or what? Perhaps different pegs, rear sets? Your boot will never slip off that's for sure. What is the suggestion of the group to minimize this? More practice on my part, or a different peg. I ride with Alpine boots and their sole is like adhesive as it is.

Thoughts?

Wow you would hate my pegs , these things are like cheese graters.

 

damn dude. is there ever any dirt on that bike!

 

Nver had much problems with the stock pegs with my alpinestar boots? ? ? How long you been at it with the boots/bike?

 

It's still got bug guts on in from my last 170 mile ride through the twistys , that and the bike is torn apart right now (new carbon bits due to show today)
The trick is to take pics when its clean
