    I bought my VFR 800fi a few weeks ago and i love it. But being a lanky git at 6'4" i just wanted a little more leg room, so bought these.
    I've tried drop footrests before on a Yamaha Fazer 600 without much luck. On the Fazer i could never quite get the ergonomics right.

    Anyway i am chuffed with these. I haven't adjusted the brake properly yet. That's a job for the weekend. But so far so good. They position
    my knees where they are supposed to be. And i haven't any ground clearance issues.
    They do a 40mm version too but i think that would be too much.

    You keep the original pins and hooks. But everything else is included. When i got
    them out the packet they looked a little short. But when on the bike it's not an issue. They are fine.

    Anyway i thought i'd share my experience. It may help someone else out in the future.
