    Hey guys!

    Getting really excited to pull the bike out of storage for the winter. Still a few months away, but excited nonetheless.

    Anyways, to the point. My wife has never really liked the rear foot pegs, she finds them very small, and to be honest, I don't blame her. They don't look comfortable at all. Too hard and thin I imagine.

    Anyone else find this an issue too? If so has anyone found any alternatives? Maybe even modifications?

    Thanks!

    I agree, that’s why my rear cover is always on. I would take them off if I could.
    Best smart ass answer to your problem is ...
    get your wife her own VFR like my wife. She actually had hers first. Bought new in 1986.

    Haha! Getting her on a bike sounds awesome to me! She wouldn't go for it though, unfortunately.

    I guess I am lucky. She had her bike before I met her.

    Justin, check into the Puig sport pegs, they might have some that will fit.
