    At the track last February I was touching my boot slider and foot peg. I have done it a time or two in the canyons too. I gotta work on my body position more and also get some better suspenders under me than stock!

    Oddly enough, since I have lowered the front and shimmed the shock, I haven't as much, but I have been working on body position concurrently, so that may be helping. I think I have about reached the limit of the stock VFR.

    Oh, yeah, I also cleaned my center stand. That is what led to this discovery.

    If you didn't lower the front it might not have scraped the pipes, that gave you less room to corner with.

    Its not his fault. He was probably born to a mother that smoked a drank while he was in the womb, raised in a house with lead pipes and dropped on his head one dozen or 3 three times. When he didn't turn out quite right and started molesting cats, they probably tried electroshock therapy and solitary confinement.

    I did the same thing, raised and shimmed rear but i left the front stock, it helps the turn in immensely. Kind of hard for me to flat foot with a 32" inseam now though lol.
