Default Kuryakyn Pegs with Stirrups

I just recently purchased the Kuryakyn ISO Pegs with Stirrups for you heels to rest in. I am having a problem with the angle of the stirrups. I set it just below level with the peg and I have problems going through the gears. I put it on an angle and I scrape the bottom against the pavement around turns. Anyone out there have these pegs and if so please tell me if you have some success with the angle of the stirrup.

I have the switch blades. I set the angle fairly flat ( or even with the horizontal) to get the best compromise. I had to get used to shifting with the stirrup out. With the stirrup in it is no different than stock.

I initially tried the switch blades at an angle, with the stirrup below the peg. I kept having the sensation my foot was falling off the peg (at 80 mph) and the stirrups would drag on every corner I took.

You may just have to get used to shifting with the stirrup just below the peg.

Took a ride with it again today (without adjusting it) and I just couldn't get used to it. I do plan on adjusting back up and just dealing with it. I pretty much kept the stirrup in until I got on the highway.. Just hated when it would hit the ground. 'Thanks for the advice.
