I've got less than 5 mm chicken strips on the standard size rear and a f#ck off big gouge out of the left hand rail already ... pretty sure i wouldn't like to lean her over too much further - not sure I'm as brave as you

The left hand peg rail, that's the one that will do it. I had my left hand rail worn half away on the front corner. Was getting faster and pitching it in harder every time I rode it untill the peg rail lifted the front tyre off the road. This was after I removed the stock roadster mufflers. With the stock mufflers they would scrape and lift the rear tyre off the road first, the back would step out a bit but no big drama. I had to modify my riding a bit, don't touch anything down much anymore.

Haha your a madman Bruce as we all know thats why we had wear markers on our pegs apparently they are made to touch down and still give you around 2" of safe lean angle. I Think you need to mount some on the sides of your mirrors
