Does anyone else have issues catching their foot on the fairing for downshifts? I'm still getting used to this bike and learning the muscle memory, but I often have clumsy downshifts because my toes are getting caught on the front fairing.
I have size 11/12 feet, and generally wear streamlined motorcycle boots (currently have a set of Sidi Mag-1 boots, which have a pretty sleek toebox). The bike has Murph's kneesavers on it, which feel really natural, and the position of the shift lever is comfortable for upshift and downshifts. The shift lever itself is also an adjustment from my other bike, because the Connie lever pivots up in front, where my other bike has a lever that pivots right in front/below the peg, so the arc of the shifter follows your foot, instead of opposite. Not a big issue, but just one of those things that feels different.
Anyway, just thought I'd see if anyone else had similar feelings/issues. It just feels like the fairing is about 1-2" too close to the shifter.
