If you are like me and live in an area where you scrape your pegs, either became the roads are crowned poorly, you drive faster than you should, or you do not know how to lean properly into a curve, may I suggest that you first learn how to properly lean into a curve--which is to say YOU lean into the curve and the bike you try and keep upright. If that seems foreign to you you should stop right here and get on line to Amazon.com and buy this book, "Sport Riding Techniques: How To Develop Real World Skills for Speed, Safety, and Confidence on the Street and Track."

If you still want to move forward, I found these adapters from Kuryakayn. They are for a GL 1500--front foot peg adapter (part number 7946) or JCP Cycles # ZZ53076.

As you can see, in one position they bring your peg up, and if flipped over, the peg will be lowered closer to the ground. It's supposed to be installed so that it lowers your peg closer to the ground. But simply grinding a little away on one edge permits these to be installed upside down and raises your peg so that you get a little more clearance than with the stock pegs--a lot in all actuality. You'll know where you have to grind because if you install them upside down to gain clearance, you'll notice that they don't quite fold up like they should--removing a little of the side that binds, will permit it to fold up upon impact just as if you installed them correctly. Remember, you assume all risk for modifications to your bike as I do to mine.
