Depends on your size and which forwards you use.I used aftermarket controls on mine and have no problems at 6-0.G.

I have no problem placing my foot on the entire forward peg with mine, and I'm 5'10". My knee does rub the cover every once in a while, but only depends on if I'm riding with my knees spread out or tucked into the tank.
