Being a bit arthritic, I got some drop pegs for my '12 14R but, I didn't like how they made me ride all pigeon toed and the shifter was too far away.

Not wanting to give up just yet, I looked around and found a shifter off an 09 ER6N Kawi. It's an inch and a bit longer and sits further outboard than the 14R piece, restoring the relationship between the parts. It's also made of steel so, I can tweak it, if needed. I gotta roll the bike out of the shed as soon as winter decides to end but, it seems worth a try and cost only $20.
