Gear changer and buell pegs

[Mojave Mike]

Buell pegs are 1" lower than stock...if I move the clamp on the serations 1 notch to lower the gear shifter, it's not enough..still leaves the shifter too high..if I move it 2 notches, the shifter fouls the exhaust pipe when changing down..how did you Buell peg guys get around this ?
Thanks,

Mike

Are you only moving the Serrated end and not adjusting the rod? I had to go one notch clockwise on the serrated end and adjust accordingly. As it is it was just barely touching the Kickstand when I downshifted. So I ground a very small bevel on the back side of the shifter to clear.

yes...use the gear shift shaft for major movements and then fine tune it with the linkage bolt that has threads on both ends.

I think I moved mine one 'notch' as well....

Does yours touch the kickstand lightly on downshift? Or maybe I am at the extreme.

Learned to lie with it stock. I know I sould adjust it, but then it cuts into my riding time.

mine do ot even get near the kickstand....at 3/4' gap ....
but than agin I wear riging boots....not shoes.....size 13, so the lever has to give me room formy toes.

To do this right you almost need to get a little bit longer rod. I think (though I haven't tried it yet) that a GSXR1000 rod is about an inch longer than the Busas. This would allow you to leave the Serrated end in the 12:00 position and adjust your pedal height optimally without putting it into any kind of bind. If this does work Pro-bolt makes a cool looking anodized shift rod for both Bikes for less than $20.

I got mine as a pair under the part number I posted.

Something of interest if someone is seeking even more comfort. The new Buell Ulysses has similar pegs but they are much wider fore and aft than the Lightning pegs. Haven't seen anyone try these but I was looking at one the other day abd couldn't help thinking they might fit.
