Hi All,

I am strongly considering some Jardine forward controls for my C50. I am tall, and mostly legs, and cannot get comfortable on long rides. I'm thinking that the forward controls will allow be to be able to stretch out while on long rides, by allowing me to rest the back of my heels on the pegs. This was my preferred riding position on my last bike.

Unfortunately, I cannot try my theory before committing. I'm hoping that someone here has had the same experience that I have, and have tried the forward controls.

The guys at my shop say that the only complaint they hear from C50 owners is from the taller ones who feel cramped.

Any input is welcome.
