New ZX-12R owner
I have been thinking of getting a ZX-12R for some months now and finally decided to close the deal on a 2003 ZX-12R with under 11,000 miles (17,740km), a flip blue-green color, chromed wheels and tank cover and a few other chromed pieces, frame sliders, Puig smoke screen, undertail treatment and flush turn signals, Power Commander III, Muzzy exhaust and K&N filter. The exhaust note is ripping - so much so that I may add a quiet insert from Muzzy.
Just took delivery August 13 and the first thing I did was change the oil. Taking off the left side bottom fairing makes it a time-consumming job.
One thing I would like some help on. I can't quite fit my legs under the tank knee indentation (I'm 6'4" or 1.93m). Does anyone know of any front pegs or rear-sets that would lower my feet about one inch (2.54cm). That would really help in the comfort department. I have done a lot of searching on the internet and found a number of rearsets, but none that will let me lower the peg one inch.

Thanks Hyper12R. Pretty funny too, cause I sold my Buell 1125R this past May in anticipation that I would find a 12R later in the year to buy! Now that I think of it, I remember some guys writing on some Buell forums about Buell pegs being used on other bikes. Seems to be a good solution.
