Yeah I know, that's why I am reluctant to keep throwing money at it if the difference is only marginal!

I've got some of these footpegs to lower the footrest position, as because I'm getting older its more & more difficult to put up with the standard footrest position.

If I was to do a track day, I can change the position quickly with an allen key

I was just about to buy a set of these from sport touring, then I noticed the thread about fitting buell foot pegs. So I have ordered a set of them to try.

I have a Sargent seat and on my curvy and I love it!!!!!
Way more comfortable than stock and doesn't feel like you're sitting in a bucket like the corbin seat for the curvy.

Get one, you won't regret it.
400 mile days are no problem.
