    I raised my bars 30mm and that has helped but i cant help but feel that i need my pegs lowered just a bit to aide the position... Any ideas that wont cost the earth ...like my tm slider ! ;)

    PS, HOW DO YOU TALL GUYS DEAL WITH HUNCHING OVER.. I AINT TALL BUT STILL NOTICE THE HEIGHT ON BARS AND PEGS AND I ALREADY HAVE QUITE A HIGH BEND PRO TAPER RC BEND !

    Forgive me for not knowing, but take a look at your pegs. If they are like a Gas Gas, or Yamaha, there will be a spacer molded into the peg on the bottom side. On a GG or Yam, you can cut it off, and re-weld it on the top, this moves the pegs down about a half of an inch. It moves them back slightly too, but it's worth it , especially 'cause it's my favorite price..... Free.

    Frankly, the Fastway pegs are not very expensive, and they're very adjustable. My last bike, a Gas Gas 250, I rewelded the pegs. This one (GG300), I bought the Fastways.
