hi. in a lot of the modified blast pics i see that people have relocated the clutch and brake linkage along with the foot pegs eliminating the drop down arms. i am very curious what people use, whether it be a kit or modified parts from other bikes. also id like to know if im correct in thinking that this mod would allow for a more aggressive lean angle before peg/foot drag. any thoughts appreciated, thanks.

As long as you move the pegs up, it allows for a more aggressive lean angle. If you just move them back, you're no better off.
They can be bought as a kit (but I'm not sure who still sells them), but are easy enough to make. Aluminum plate for the mounts, jig saw and drill to cut them out. Brake side uses all the stock brake parts-nothing to buy unless you break the line bending it. The shifter side can use a shifter off a Buell XB, Lightning, M2 or Storz or modified Sportster shifter as well as quite a few universal models.
