Shifting around a little bit will allow some COG change, and allow a little faster running.

When I use to drag my stock exhaust the fun factor disappeared. After changing exhaust and adding longer shocks the only one that puckers anymore is the ol when were riding 2 up and occasionally drag a peg

Yep...drag the passenger peg mount on the left....Pipes on the right...even with the 12.5" progressive shocks for more clearance. LOVE them twisty mountain roads! (does freak the wife out a bit when she's on the back)

Numerous times on the '13 FB. Makes a horrendous noise but I don't feel any less safe as long as it is just a short touch on the pavement.

That's why I put 13" Progressive 440's on the back to replace the stock 12" garbage from Showa. As in many things, that extra inch really helps

I went to an mx style peg, it is cut away at the ends to make it hit less often..... I still drag the crap out of them. Picture is from when I originally put them on.
