    Yep. I do something similar. I grab my pant cuff and haul my leg over. I'm forever dragging a boot on something if I don't.

    Stand on pegs !



    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    Take up Yoga. I'm past 70 and don't scratch the seats, all due to Yoga.
    A friend bought a BMW 1600 and said "The only way to mount is to stand on the footpeg".
    I ignored the footpeg and just swung my yoga-limber leg over the seat. He was impressed.

    See here's the deal, most of us that are vertically challenge find it difficult just to get our leg over the seat. So hitting the passenger backrest would be a dream come true!

    The key here is to "gingerly" step on the peg

    Simply exercise more. At least that's what I've been told.
