Hello guys.I've something that is puzzling me.I bought a used FZS 600 (98-99) that had no lean angle limit warning screw (under the footpeg). I bought ones from Yamaha, which I suppose are the original. I have never managed to scrap it on the tarmac. My rear wheel is totally used on the right side. There is not a 1mm "chicken strips" on the right side of it, so I would suppose I should have already scrap it on the tarmac. But that never happened. I fear I may reach, or go over the limit of grip of the tyre and may loose the rear wheel and crash, as I have no indication (by scrapping the limiter) that I ve reach the limit of the wheel grip.Do you have an explanation for this? ThanksMike
I recall loosing two from the right hand side as when they touch down, they unscrew themselves. Never bothered refitting them again after that.

Anyone else caught then on the top of their boots when they lift their feet up onto the pegs? Or is that just me?

Aside from the lean angle, the distance from hero blob to road surface is affected by the load and suspension settings. If you’re light then you may run out of tyre before the blobs touch down as you won’t be compressing the suspension as much as a heavy rider does.
Hello Guys, so finally I managed to scrap it. I put in a longer screw. So in total the screw I have now is roughly 2 cms longer than the original part.
