    Default Got a question about the 2013 ST and the operator pegs

    I like the idea of them being extended 5 inches for a more relaxed position. I have experienced muscle cramps on my RS.

    Will my size 12 D boot be banging into the lowers? I can't sit flail footed because of my artificial leg.

    Thanks, Scott

    I'm pretty sure no. We had some big guys riding with us and none of them complained about that. Best to sit of one first to be sure.

    Default ST-S

    What I'm reading is the ST-S has rider floorboards vs the ST pegs.. is this correct? that would simplify matters considerabaly .. as far as me having feet as big as a sasquatch..

    well maybe a tad smaller

    and where has the new footbrake been positioned? I would ask my dealer.. but ....

    I had to add an aftermarket handbrake on my RS to keep from stomping in the dark.. and on my automatic, before , it made for some harrowing times

    thanks, Scott

    Can't get the LTD in yellow, either. That's my wife's hang-up. Don't forget to add the grip heaters, too.

    The boards only come on the SE and on the Limited because it's an SE. Not sure what you're asking about the brake. I don't have a comparison to anything.

    There is a radio option for the STS. You can not get different colors but maybe you can swap panels with someone who has the color you want.
