I agree Achim. The problem is that my motorcross boots were getting
totally ruined. I thought it best to wear sports boots with toe sliders.
This way the times that I cannot get my foot out of the way at least my
boots aren't getting ruined. My SIDI motorcross boots cost me 130
pounds.
BTW, is anyone from the list going to the Isle Of Man this year... I
will be there for lots of footrest grindings if anyone is there between
3rd & 9th June. For those that have never been you really should make it
one of your annual @ travel jaunts.
All the best...

Well, I have similar experiences with ground clearance. But when
you touch
the ground with your shoes, there's still some spare space until
the
footrests touch it. It really depends on your "foot-style" on
the rests, if
this happens or not.

P.S.: If nothing helps, put four feet on the passengers
footrests :-)))))
