Hey ed
Before i send you the dog legs,seriously coincidence that ive noticed today but if you scroll back to Joe Rock's comment about lowering making it easier to grind out, i just noticed after a ride out today that my right hand hero blob on the foot peg was missing, on closer inspection the peg is also ground down, looking at old photos it seems my bike has always been like it since ive had it & considering that the left side hero blob is untouched & the tyres hadnt been over much with the previous owner it seems likely that some spirited riding with these dog legs will lead to grinding of the pegs.
Ok so i never ground out when i first got the bike but i had only just passed my test & it wasnt long til i got it jacked up,with it jacked right up im now getting my tyres way over without grinding, my only hero blob on the left side hasnt been touched.
Couple of pics of grinding attached
