Buy some proper rearsets, or at the very least some of them raiser plates for the stock ones!! ... you will soon get your moneys worth in replacement boot cost!! ;)

they're not bad - they'll gain you an inch up & an inch or so back. take the "hero blob" bolts out of your footpegs too, or replace them with something a bit more low-profile
