Very possible. The one time I did ride them, it was near disaster. Just more confident with lower bars.

Am I missing something here? I have those exact bars on my street bob and if I turn sharp I can easily grind my peg or drag my heels. I actually have to be careful not to. Not sure if any skill is involved....
