Default Folding Shifter Peg?
Anyone know if there's a company out there that makes a folding shifter peg for dressers? I love using the heel shifter on my SG, but once I get into 5th on the highway I'd like to slide my foot back sometimes but the heel shifter gets in the way. It would be cool if I could just fold it up and out of the way when I'm on the highway.

Never seen one. Maybe look into an extended shift lever. They're about 1.5 inches longer. It really helps on my fatboy. Same problem. Still not hard to reach shifting either.

Or if you really had your heart set on folding shifter peg. Take it off, cut it in half and put a hinge on it[8D]
