that's why i'm asking around, i was sooo surprised., I think the previous owner must have made some mods - he was a tall fella.
meh, I still love it, Smitten

Give us a yell the day before you do the Putty again & I'll have a look at your set up, I'm at Windsor

Just be careful riding with Simmo.
He avoids scraping his pegs by keeping his front wheel in the air!

Unless you still have the blobs at the ends of the standard pegs.
I think they will bottom out.
Just take those warning blobs off or add GSX1100 pegs to it.
Have them on mine and no issues although they are a bit small.

another peg scraper :)
just cut the pins down so they are shorter
my left peg had worn down a fair bit

Already took the blobs off, but i think i'll steal my srad's pegs before it goes Wm and give those a go.

I'd rather be riding my Hayabusa thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about my Hayabusa

Sounds like the rear of the bike is too low or too much sag, or She can ride like the clappers Scary

Looks like the quiet librarian and the peg scraper will be hard to pass on the loop at jindy this year fellas - could we see some lipstick on the trophy for the first time, has kawa's slobber been wiped off it from last year and will spaman be able to tame the first all motor 300hp Gen 1 on the tight and twisty curves of the mountains?

Place your bets for the "Mortality Meter Cup" coming soon to a wet and slippery corner near you Pi_tongue

Cheers Ruffy

Jindy? what happens there, only been for the snow. I'm such a newbie, I mean I only found putty 2 months ago, after 2 years in OZ - teach me to be so unsociable - better remedy that Beer

Jindy = Jindabyne, a resort town in the Snowy Mountains down south of Canberra.
We gather there to spread bullshit and burn rubber etc. once or twice a year.
It traditionally rains for us and makes for a cosy get together.
Last weekend of November is the next trip.
See the Riding Not Talking important threads at the top of the list.
