Footpegs

Ok, I am sitting here reading about all these companies that make footpegs and foot controls lately. Is it just me or has everybody forgotten that when you ride the motorcycle, it leans to one side or the other and the first thing to hit the ground (Unless you have a stupid large belt drive) is your footpeg. Now, with a fixed footpeg, it jams the ground and can, in extreme circumstances lift the back wheel ending up with the rider being high sided and crashing! Seen it happen.

Now, every motorcycle manufacturer in the world makes their bikes so when you lean the bike over and if the footpeg hits the ground it folds up, causing the rider no problems.

Maybe the rest of these people forgot that you are supposed to ride your motorcycle...

Dunno, maybe it's just me.
