Should be the same as the brake lever...Un do the pinch bolt and move it where you want it..They all have to be adjustable for ppl w larger or smaller feet...

Not in its stock form. One notch up is too much. It will hit the valve cover.

DHS racing makes a kit that allows infinite adjustment and takes out all the slack.

Tks for the info. Finally got to ride a F6B in Russellville last Weds. A lot bigger bike than my XC but a whole lot less room - very confining. Might be a deal breaker for me:icon_frown:

Might be a deal breaker for me:icon_frown:At 6'5" and 400lb with a 15 boot I know what "confining" is and why I have had to custom fit to me every MC I have ever owned.:icon_lol:
You can make the F6B fit quite well with a few of these. "ccsmiley"

Drop Mini floorboards with 3/4 drop creates more toe room.

Maybe a combination of the 2 would alleviate the problem.

I installed the Kuryakyn #4321 Kinetic pegs on the drop down mounts since I wasn't too happy with the previous mini-boards, I had to use the inside front of my left foot to shift with the mini-boards installed.

Here is link to my original post on the subject. http://hondaf6b.com/showthread.php?6750-Kuryakyn-Comfort-Drop-Mounts-with-Kinetic-footpegs

shortlegI believe there are some caveats in using that extension.
"For drivers who prefer shifting with toe under, this optional shifter extension will enable you to raise the front shift peg 1 1/2” to allow you to keep your foot under the shifter. This lets you up or down shift with your toe as well as provide additional board space for size 15 and larger boots. For use with GL18020 floorboard set only. Please note: this shifter extension also fits the Honda F6B."
I think this only fit the Heel/Toe shifter that comes with the floorboard set that can also be used on the F6B. Maybe someone who has it can say.:shrug:
