Default foot peg ???

on my 09 fat bob the right peg seems to point down has anyone else ran into this? I had the dealer look at it and he agreed and then after a call to HD I measured it and it is within thier specs I changed pegs and that made it no better after putting on a SE air cleaner you dont notice it as bad because your leg is tucked in more ..... just curious if anybody else has noticed this

I also have the same deal..... felt like my foot was slowly sliding off.... I put a small piece of a credit card under the peg between the peg and mount.... just pull it up and put it there and pushed it down on it.... That did the trick for me!

And it's still there

I have also noticed this on my 06 Streetbob. I am in the process of making some "bear trap" pegs and I'm putting set screws in the end to be able to adjust the angle.
