I always though the foot pegs should be ahead of where they are. About where the shifter rubber is and about where the brake pedal is. Where they are with my short inseam when I put my feet down they are right where my legs should be. Put my feet in front they don't reach the ground easy, the same when I put them behind the pegs. I don't like forward controls, too far forward. Rear sets to far back.
