Sportbike Wrench- Adjusting Foot Controls

[@DriftyRig]

As someone who is 6’4” with a size 15 shoe, I think I speak for all of us big guys when I saying thank you for this video. Just bought a 2017 kawasaki Ninja, an it’s shifter peg and brake pedal were very uncomfortable an I had to swing my foot out an around to hit both every time. Not to mention my long legs would cramp up on me from my legs being bent so tight on the bikes pegs.

[@Gexxon]

Perfect instructions. I needed this demonstration. Especially for the gear shift, and foot position adjustment. It feel so much better now, and fits like a glove to how i ride. I've not had anymore cramping up and comfortableness. Thank you.

[@Kyre5049]

You’ve helped adjust levers from the middle of the length of my fingers to the phalanges tips. Much easier for reach, riding, control, handling and confidence. Thanks!

[@Thelonewolf1154]

Wow .....outstanding!!! I've had my bike several years and would make-do to its settings. Thanks Dave, I didn't know I had those options.....

[@EngineerWithGuitar]

It's hard to believe this is the same Dave Moss who has his own channel in 2021. 2009 Dave Moss is so....polite. He seems to be the most popular source on KZbin for motorcycle ergonomics but wow, in his newer videos it's hard to get past his unapproachable tone, very abrasive.

[@Glories999]

Thanks bro! Just bought motorcycle boots and they're way different to regular trainers. Adjusted the lever up slightly to help with upshifting

[@Elshilai]

Wow you really do learn something new everyday, never thought of doing those adjustments until now. Thank You

[@Scout703]

I am learning so much before I have even gotten a motorcycle I will definitely keep this in mind when making that big buy.

[@sachablake6894]

i was about to buy some adjustable rear sets , i didn't realise i could adjust my own set! thanks

[@Vermino]

wow just amazing - i've been riding for 5 years now and never knew i had rearset adjustments (i only knew about the adjustment spindle on the shift rod) awesome vid

[@seanmapley7417]

Thanks for the video very informative. I got new motorbike boots that were bigger than my old ones and had to adjust my gear level upwards slightly so I could actually fit the boot under the lever.

[@lorddalamer]

Thank you very easy to follow and very detailed info. Great for a new rider like myself who is scared of his foot not reaching clutch from my peg and my rear brake foot placement needed to be moved.

[@morpheus20170]

Great information as always Dave but I’ve been told that the position on the spline should be parallel with the ground and on my 2006 Fireblade the dot should be inline with the groove

The BEST bike mechanic

[@mykelsnipe9954]

Thank you for ur video im very cramped up with how my rear brake currently is this will help me lots

[@MaxPayne19146]

this helps alot. I thought my rear brake was messed up because the lever was hard to reach.

[@mav1937]

Thanks, great vid and same bike as mine so really helped. Cheers.

[@ebubekirbinici6031]

Exactly what i was looking for thank you

[@jetpilot123jkh]

Great video! I have one question -- could you provide some information on what a good position for both shifter and brake looks like? Would be great to cover riding foot position -- ball of foot on foot peg vs front of heel on peg.

[@kevinbacon1814]

You are a motorcycle genuis!! Thanks Dave!

[@nickh3809]

Great video bro, and much better music in this 1 👍👌👌

[@applebitefool]

thats why gixxers are awesome. more adjustability. either way you could get aftermarket rearsets ;)

[@dant565]

Very informative thanks im gonna try different pozzies

[@lucayos]

i was so hoping my R6 had the foot adjustment but unfortunately not and as im a short ass would have come in very handy

[@motomarmot6544]

awesome video thank you for this

Helpful video thanks

[@kingclueless]

Thanks for posting man :)

[@slavenleko]

I have Kawasaki Ninja zx6r 2003-2004 year. How adjust stock foot peg?

[@Dedicated_8]

why didnt you shoe how to move the brake side peg, i move my shifter peg up and when i tried moving the brake peg to the same position i could not get it due to the break line restricting the movement. i wrestled with for 20 mins and finally gave up and moved them both back...

[@RanGer-498]

very very informative.

[@ping2412]

is this Dave?

[@MotoFeeder]

this is Dave Williams, the guy sitting on the bike. You'll find Dave Moss over at his channel DaveMossTuning

[@DavidM2002]

Sorry but I have to pick a nit. At 5:24 that is a Left Hand Thread, not Right Hand.

[@bridgettdixon6807]

Hi Dave, does the rear foot peg adjustment apply to my Yamaha 2012 FZ8? Thanks.

[@lampingromeo]

Great vid!

[@Sequel7]

i sat on the honda 600rr 2016 and the pegs were way too high

[@RexyFan]

My riding shoes have a notch under the sole where the heel is so it locks into the pegs. My question is.... is it better to place your heel on the foot peg or the ball of your feet on the pegs ??

[@unclesesi5559]

The notch is there so that it's easier to anchor and pivot the boots when shifting. Other than that, you should rest the ball, not heel on the peg

[@livewoutlimit]

dang. my R6 don't have thisss

[@MrDylanryan]

I wish there was someone to help me 6-4 185 lbs, 33 in inseam. Size 12.5 feet. My 2003 Suzuki Alstare needs much adjustment.

[@DanielTojcic]

Thank you

[@sidb9540]

Man... if I only knew about that height adjustment so you can lock your knees onto the tank... rather than "reaching" to get a lock on with your knee... So much waste of time!! now I don't even have the bike! :(

[@SPOK3S]

Guru!!!!

[@2391jessie]

U need to adjust the shifter if u buy alpinestars supertech r's

[@IdzharMax_IsaTurbo]

Know i know. Good knowledge.

[@mikedyniin3102]

What are good rear sets for a 6'3 rider on a gsxr 1000 2012

[@MotoFeeder]

Listing from inexpensive but good quality through to professional best quality, Vortex, Woodcraft, or Attack Performance

[@mikedyniin3102]

@@MotoFeeder thanks so much I just purchased the bike so I'm trying to make sure I replace the right stuff and get some gear to wear. Liked and subscribed

[@MotoFeeder]

@@mikedyniin3102 You'll get the most out of your bike from watching the Dave Moss Tuning channel. Suspension is 95% of the deal, tires are 4%, and EVERYTHING else is 1%; in terms of bike performance.

[@rlui0514]

Can you change the position of rear brake lever?

[@Mattschindig]

Yes.

[@FrankTheGonzalez]

good stuff

[@GhostHunterWV]

I agree

[@TheCaliforniaFrank]

Name of song?

[@tomthompson7400]

a reverse thread is a left handed thread ,,,, just a detail .

[@abhijitarun2415]

hey does yamaha r15 have this adjustments

[@keaponlaffin6737]

Music man! Turn. It. Off. Please. Other than that really informative! 👍👍

[@markkulyas2418]

Music is not necessary in an instructional video, it is nothing more than an utter distraction.

[@BigBadLoneWolf]

why take advice, from someone who doesn't know the difference , between a left and right handed thread

[@TheFloridaBikeVlogger]

thank you.
