    I took my Tiger for a ride yesterday. It's a 2012 ABS SE and it new to me.

    My foot (size 13) has very little room inside the stock peg/lever combination.

    I ordered some motorcycle boots that have a sleek profile and a less-pronounced heel. Those should help. They also have buckles instead of laces.

    I found this product:
    https://sw-motech.us/p/4052572242100?sku=FSC.11.619.10001

    I believe that extending the shift lever 27mm while leaving the peg in the same position will make it easier for me to find gears and be more comfortable pushing up near my toes.

    If anyone has encountered this, I'd appreciate any comments.

    @Dan Zulu Have you tried the adjustment via the gear rod linkage.

    I did not know there was an adjustment on the original. I'll look that up, thanks.

    I am trying to extend the end of the shift lever further away from the peg, towards my toes. From what I've seen so far the adjustment only raises it or lowers it.

    @Dan Zulu Check if the lever has a screw at the back of it. If t has just get a longer screw and some spacers.
