If your backrest doesn't have a pad on it. It will punish you on a rough road if you can't get away from it.

Which lowering brackets are those?
I’m considering this one, but so far can only find the wider peg model for the front.

Thx. I also read from a few that caution against a pad that pushes the passenger even further forward. I guess bimota’s fix would mitigate this problem. Maybe I’ll velcro some leftover sheepskin to it.

Wow, over three inches! That’s the biggest drop I’ve seen.
Thx for link. Do they interfere when folded up with two joints?
no not at all they fold up lovely and a proper peg for a passenger, the only thing i found is its slighty in the way when your off the bike and trying to put your foot on the centre stand to pull the bike on that stand but its a issue that you get use to and to have great quality and comfort for the boss its fine

i had to do this fix my wife loved the room on the 1200gsa, i bought the tenere we had 1 ride there was no room between the topbox and me she would not get on the bike, so i had to find a way to make it ok, moved the box back 2" and we went for a ride as i wanted my 2 week trip in europe to go a head, we came back she loved the bigger space, i bought those lower pegs as my wifes tallish, plus the toureatech seat
we have had 3 trips now of 2 weeks 8-10 hr day riding she loves it so happy days
