Pegs DOWN!

[kempy]

Scraped my pegs up riding along cedar flats this morning. Was hanging off the bike a fair way too so wasn't cheating either! First time on the 7R

Cool, how do ya cheat scrapin' pegs anyway?

All I have managed is scraping boots like lil' toe, but no chicken strips on the rear either, felt like I was on the edge of the tyre, hmm must need longer scrape bolts on the pegs.

Good feeling though.

Ya cheat by not getting off the bike. Because that way you have to lean the bike over alot further to corner, and you go slower.

Awesome feeling, though shit myself. I honestly didn't think it'd happen.

Great job kempy hope you never had a pillion cause they would be scraping their pants out now

[Jonno]

ah I see, yeah its a fine line of scary and fun, and I ask myself shall I go further or not besides the bike should do more than you can but I question that all the time.

Once on my old ZX-6R i had aftermarket pegs without the scrape stem thingys on the pegs & went around a left hand corner with a pillion & scraped the peg & sidestand

[Jonno]

hehe, I had a GT350 once and leaned that over too far but the exhaust cans stopped it going further and had a bit of a wild ride holding on.
(doing handstands on the handlebars isn't part of my riding skills)

Good stuff Kempy... I know the feeling (Shit myself the other day when the front wheel came up - never happened before)

Hehehe, good job mate.
Think you'll need some of those rear sets I'm about to make.
Along with lots off other bits on my bike, they're smashed too

[kempy]

Cheers

Racey rear sets would indeed be nice!

[mrmina]

I REALLLY need to get to an advanced riding corse this year. Nice effort Kempy.

Well I used to scrape the pegs & the RHS fairing on my ZX2 @ Warwick on the hairpin!
But only because the shock was shagged & would compress so much, but it made me feel good.
I think to scrape the pegs on my 636 you would have to be doing something REALLY scary to get the hero blobs to touch down,especially with the firm rear shock.

But anyways back to your story, good on ya!

I'm Still not touching down & this is about as far as I have gone!!

[kempy]

Geezus Gizmo! You scraping up the shin sliders on your boots there? FARK.

Hey Gizmo, you should tell your photographer to clean his lense. Looks like he has some wierd crap all over it!
