Default Passenger footrest issue

'06 RG w Corbin Dual Tour seat. Passenger foot rest raised all the way up. Wife's crook of the knee comes into uncomfortable contact with the stock saddlebag. Any way to raise the passenger footrest up a little higher? Any other suggestions to improve her leg comfort? Thanks.

You have a few options. Do you have the rear crash bar eliminator kit? (I have it, check the pic). This will give you a little clearance. You can go to foot pegs with the drop section upside down so it actully raised the foot pegs instead of lowering them. You could have a custom made standoff plate made from aluminum. Or check out the kuryakyn adjustable pass peg step. Link below.. Zook

Just put the Kuryakyn adjustable passenger pegs on my Ultra yesterday and the wife love them. You might consider it. It sure did help my wife.

Have the Kurykyn's on the King and wife loves them. She can ride longer, gives her a different position for her legs. One of the best items I have purchased.
