Fitted on quite straight forward but I am very fussy about the ergonomics of my foot levers because I have a
limited movement on my left ankle from old bike injuries and pins etc. The design of these makes it hard to get the lever angle right without the end hitting the silencer. At the start I had to lift my whole leg off the peg to change down and so I started to remove metal bit by bit off the lever end and rubber until it started to be ridable.
The last few weeks I've been testing and gradually removing more and more metal! Finally I have something that works for me -looks a bit extreme but when it's on the bike you hardly notice and there is still plenty of good metal and strong weld so there's no chance of the toe bit snapping off.
Riding position is very different from the OE footrest position as they are at least 160mm set back. Once you get used to it they are much better in my opinion, but then I'm also used to riding modern sports bikes that have pretty high rear-set footrest positions anyway. If I put on ace bars or clip-ons these will work way better with that set up than the original pegs. With the standard set up I always felt that I was sitting with my feet really forward and put my toes on the pegs anyway, with these it just feels better for fast road riding, changing gear and cornering.
One downside is that the brake lever is considerably shorter than OE so there is a lot of leverage missing and so the back brake is not as effective. Hard to lock the back wheel up now unless I really put all my full weight on the lever! Don't think I will miss it much though, it's still great for slow riding / balancing etc. which is all I used it for anyway really.
