F6B not knee friendly....help

[Verismo]

+4 on Kuryakyn mini boards with drop down. I'm 6' and the boards give me about an 80-85° bend at the knees. I like this better than going the full 90°(or the 70-80° stock position) because it allows for easier posting over pot holes. There's a company that makes an elaborate foot peg relocation kit if you prefer a totally forward riding position, but it'll set you back about 700 bucks, I think. The other thing to consider is physical fitness and quad/hamstring/core strength. You're pushing around a 900 pound motorcycle and an ergonomic position can only supplement a moderately strong rider. Don't give up until you are fully satisfied, either. It's a fantastic machine but you need to be comfortable to fully enjoy it. Good luck!!

I'm 5'11, and this bike fits me to a tee, so there you go. We're all different. I have highway pegs and don't even use them. I feel perfect on this thing.

I'm 5' 8" and honestly think this bike was made for someone my height. I do use highway pegs to stretch my legs out, but am very comfortable on this bike for 12-16 hour days. I also have a Corbin seat, Helibars.
