If you want more legroom, you will need offset pegs (Buell part) or an adapter plate that would drop the original control brackets (reaersets) down.
Thank you, didn't know that there were other sets or adapters out there to bring my legs down. Only problem I would see is my foot hitting either the exhaust or possibly the ground in a tight turn. I am definitely not scraping knee on my turns commuting to work, but there are a few corners where I do get fairly low. Still have about 3/4 of an inch chicken strips so I know I am not leaning as much as I could. anyone have experience with bringing their pegs down for more leg room?
