    Get in contact with Busylittleshop over @ VFRD, he needs a 7th gen so that he can make blocks for them, he allready has blocks for 5th and 6th gens that use the stock foot pegs. Don't know where you're at or remember where BLS is but maybe you can be his Guine-7th gen owner so he can get his measurements. Many 7th genners have been clamoring for peg lowering blocks lately.

    I've never had success using the spinning radius type but Whaccessories.com has peg lowering with one with a small rubber top.

    Larry at BLS isn't doing 7th Gen blocks that would accept your stock pegs.

    Knight Design is working on some prototypes now that I'm excited about. I should have them next week and will report on the quality and install if they move to production. I've had 1" and 2" drops from them before on prior bikes as well as their axle sliders and love the quality and feel. I came across them when looking for Buell pegs that everyone was wanting in the past to create legroom. Here are my pics that got me thinking originally...I was considered Franken-ing these if I had to...

    I had some of the Knight Design 1" drop pegs on an '08 Suzuki Bandit 1250 and I loved them. Great product, excellent fit and finish. If they wind up producing VFR1200 pegs, I would highly recommend that you look at them as a strong option.

    Knight Design now has the VFR1200 lowering footpegs for sale ~$135USD

    Honda Aftermarket Parts - Knight Design - VFR G7 Footpegs

    I now have a set and love them on the VFR as loved them on past bikes.

    - 1" drop so no lower than your stock peg feelers
    - uses standard lever adjustment and articulates the same with stock spring
    - went with the Quadtrax and has great grip and little vibe. (your boots sit on the tips of little pyramids)
    - Vibes equal to what's felt on the handlebars
    - Shift lever moved 1cm closer to peg and will likely yet remove lock nut on brake plunger bolt for additional 1cm lever down
