I have been wanting to post pictures of my BLAST! here but have been having trouble posting pictures. Young_gun_rider ... I didn't want to impose on your post but you've inspired me to post this ... thank you !!!

Speaking of riding experience and cornering ... I'm embarrassed to tell you that I have logged over 140,000 miles on four different bikes in 23 states in the past 14 years and have never touched a peg ... ... (but safe)

I'll try once more to post a picture of my two current rides ...

And I have tried to scrape the pegs practicing in a parking lot, but I have not done it. After much trying, and seeing on the Ride Like a Pro videos them scraping the pegs but they use big Harleys, I don't see me ever doing it on the Blast.

The saddle bags are Nelson Rigg Silver Streak bought on close out last year ... http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/71/5115/I TEM/Nelson-Rigg-Silver-Streak-SSC-150-Deluxe-Sport -Saddlebags.aspx

They fit fine and work great with only the original straps and no extra support ... though I'd like to add a bracket to help support them slightly better.

The black blast must be the fastest cause I scrape my pegs all the time, Usually dragging a boot and grinning wide. You have to be in it to win it to drag pegs on the blast. I had a speed triple have a hard time keeping up with me on the twisties. He finally out horsepowered me so I pulled to the side and let him by. When we got to the top he told me he was struggling to keep up with me. He is a long time rider and in most circumstances faster then me.

Huh? I scraped pegs during the Rider's Edge...? The stock pegs stick out like cruiser floorboards!
