I do notice a difference in my knees, which is great, I now though have interference from the kickstand tab that sticks out in front of the left peg behind the shifter. I almost can't get my toe under to shift. Not sure if it's just the boots I was wearing or if it's going to be an issue.

I still want to replace my seat with a taller one (I'm 6'5") so maybe that will be enough and I can put the stock pegs back on.

If you install Buell's you definitely need to adjust the shift lever position. It can be raised and lowered quite a bit. The 2 bolts on either end of that bar turn in opposite directions. You'll also need to adjust the brake lever to its lowest safe position.

I installed the Buell pegs and was prepped to start adjusting the brake & shift but after a test ride I found the positions still more than acceptable. I will admit that I have a size 13 shoe (doesn't really match up well with my 28" inseam) and any change is still within my comfort zone. If you fit the Buells, a relatively economical solution, I'd advise a good test ride before diving into the controls. You never know. Thumbs Up
