Scraped my footrest...
Note of caution to future "upgraders"... If you upgrade to a big cruiser, be aware that the GZ is designed to handle a much greater radius of lean than, say, a Stratoliner. In my second hundred miles, I managed to catch the footrest on the asphalt on a slow speed turn into a side street. Kind of got my attention, as I had never scraped the pegs on the GZ in 3000 miles, but, it didn't really affect me as much as I thought such a thing would. As with the pegs, the footrests fold up a bit, there was a little noise, but, all in all, twarn't no big thang. That being said, I'm gonna be a little less aggressive on lean - next time I might not be so lucky.
