Will that end up being a problem or does it matter?
On another note, my being wobbly and her feeling so heavy last week was just a combination of me being exhausted and short  I ordered the Joe Rocket Heartbreaker boots with the 2.5 inch wedge so while I wait for them to get here, I threw on a pair of 2 inch flip flops to compare. That plus having energy made a big difference. With the 2 inches I'm still on tip toes with both feet but I can comfortable keep the bike straight up and rest my weight on the ball of my left foot to start off. I can get on and off easily, walk next to her forward and back. The only issue I noticed is that my legs want to be where the pegs are....
I'm so excited to go on this journey, I got my temps the other day and I'm signed up or the MSF in July  |
I use 2 fingers for clutch and brake, I have never used all my fingers. Will not be an issue.
The boots might be an issue, it will change the angle of your toes when shifting. When you get them sit on the bike and practice moving your toes under the shifter.
