    Default Less Rubber On Pegs...?

    Anyone know if there's an option to get footpeg rubbers a little lower?... Less rubber?

    I need to lose about an inch, there's just too much!!

    don't know which model we are talking about but our sponsors on the home page have adaptors so you can go to standard pegs available in bike shops. The other option would be floorboards... Kuryakyn for one has them....

    They're just too bloody big!
    I need another inch of leg room... Seat is great, but need an inch in the legs
    Makes sense to lose it in the rubber!

    Didn't work out... The pegs on the '14 STS are different... Looks like I'll have to get a Russell Day long seat to lift me up an inch or so.
