Default The wife needs more legroom on the back - what are my options?
She's saying the pegs need to be moved forward but im not sure that this is an option. What are my options for giving a passenger a more "forward control" feel?

Thanks!

Google isnt the answer to all. Did you look at these results yourself? No help at all...

Try changing the seat first, chances are the seat is too low for her and she needs a higher seat to change her leg position.

Just for kickin around, try one of the Mustang set ups, or even the Sundowner, its got a wider butt area and it sits higher. that lil inch goes a long way for women..

( wait.. im sorry, that came out all wrong)
