I received an email from an owner who attempted to install an aftermarket footpeg lowering kit and found that following the installation the rear brake pedal could not be adjusted properly, and it sounds like a very similar situation we had reported on the 2010 Locked wheel thread on the other forum. http://forum.concours.org/index.php?topic=65051.0 I don't know how many of you out there are using footpeg lowering kits, but this is something you all should probably check out, as it appears this issue could affect other owners with similar accessories installed. A recent report of a locked up rear wheel on a bike that had a misadjusted rear brake lever due to an aftermarket footpeg of some sort was reported just this week. In light of this, I would urge caution when making any modifications to the bike that affect the controls of the motorcycle. The rear brake lever can be adjusted, but you need to stay within the proper range of it's adjustment (listed on page 12-14 of the service manual). The brake pedal needs free play in it so that the master cylinder can return fully. If it can't, this can cause pressure to build up in the rear brake system and overheat the brakes and even lock up the rear wheel. Similar care needs to be exercised whenever you adjust other controls as well, or add modifications to the bike that affect them. The throttle, clutch, front brake lever, suspension, and steering, are all critical items and special care needs to be exercised when making any adjustments or alterations to them. Most of the time it's pretty easy to make adjustment with no ill effects, however, there are a few cases like this where there may be more to it than meets the eye at first glance. The best advice I can give you, is stick to the procedures in the OEM Kawasaki service manual, and whenever in doubt, ask.
