It's related to fact that my feet are pretty long and the problems rice at speeds where I need to push my feet forward against the pegs to keep them there. You can do it for a while, but at the end you need to slow down or take a break. I don't get much help from using heels, it ain't very comfortable to knees.



Legs fully extended will hurt the knees. Slightly bend your legs while hitching your heels over the pegs. Toes pointed slightly outward too.

While in the oem riding posture, at speed, your knees should be tight to the tank. I cannot ride at 5K+ rpms too long in the stock position either. Whereas laying down on the bike and using the air flow to help keep you off the tank is a nice high speed position. 80+ mph and you will float between the tank and an upright postion all due to the wind speed.

Being blown off the bike is more a total body thing than a foot/feet thing. A tradeoff occurs. So, when the discomfort arises, change your position until that new position becomes uncomfortable. Then the prior position is comfortable again. (for a time)
