Anyone played with lowering the rearset height, I currently have small back issue that causes me to be in a little discomfort on the bike at the minute.

Hopefully it eill be fixed in the next few months but I don't want to stop riding over the British summer

I feel that if I lowered the pegs a bit I could get a comfy ride out of her ........the bike that is???

Any thoughts??

I'm a big guy and my found that installing buell xb12 lightning pegs gives it a 1" drop and is SOOOO much easier on the knees and gives quite a bit more room. I installed the stock pegs last weekend to try and avoid clearance issues on the track and couldn't bear the stock peg height. Knees were throbbing after a 2 hr ride. You'll have to grind them down to fit in the perches, but they are an easy $40 fix!
