I saw another thread under general that made me question whether my riding position is correct, so I thought the right thing to do was to simply ask in the noob section.
Currently, I rest my foot on the brake and on the shifter while just cruising. Is this correct? I never asked in my MSF course; I just did it this way.
Also, how should the brake and shifter levers be adjusted with regards to foot positioning?
My boots have a lot of padding and my feet are kind of big (Alpinestars MX 2, size 47 - I wear size 13 shoes/sneakers) and did take a bit of getting used to, but I can now feel where the brake engages.
I believe otherwise my positioning is correct, but I would appreciate any further critique. I place my rear closer to where the passenger seat begins, and make sure my elbows are bent out.
Thanks in advance!
