| I too have a Marauder, though I don't have this problem. I haven't looked too closely, but I think the shift lever may have some adjustment to it.

| You likely just have to pull the lever and turn it up a notch. Lowering the footpeg just might reduce your lean angle clearance enough to be a hassle or a hazard.
