Then its just the case of changing your riding position. I wouldn't go round scraping the pegs too much because most of your weight will be on that peg and it could lift the rear tyre or dig into something on the surface.

It was a bit of a brown trouser moment. That was last summer and I still haven't got a new brake pedal

Is it easier on a more sporty bike? I find the SV a bit skittish/wobblywhen hanging off going fast

can't really say since I never really pushed my SV hard around corners. I only started making more of an effort when I bought my current bike last year then caught the trackday bug soon after.
