    FWIW, Roadsmith offers lowered and forward comfort controls. "... new controls actually move both foot pegs and the brake and shift levers forward 3 inches and down 1 inch ...".

    it worked decently, i've abandoned it, i prefer it as it came (stock now)

    i also came from a harley and initially had trouble getting use to the angle i needed to put my foot on (size 12 boot)

    now i don't really notice it
    What? Coffee ISN'T free?

    Herre's a couple ideas ...

    The shifter peg is on a spline (or something like that). The screw can be loosened/removed and the peg pulled off and positioned higher for bigger feet/boots.

    Or, try western boots with a narrower toe. I use these on my Harley with good results.

    And .. many manufacturers make lowering pegs of some sort ... I have them on my Wing. This will give more room for your BIG feet, m'friend.

    Just some suggestions.
