Murf Riar 16

Hi Paul, Murf here have just joined and am looking to buy an XVS 950 my only concern is the footboard clearance. Can you please let me know if you have had any problems with them scraping to much or is it not a problem.

Hello everyone Murf here from Hamilton New Zealand. Kids have left home and I am getting back into riding again. Starting carefully with a 2005 250 Virago, have had it for 2 months and absolutely love it.Going for a weekend cruise and winding through the country roads is awesome. I am already looking around for my next bike. Have fallen rather badly for the XVS 950a. To me it looks like my dream bike, my only concern is the footboard clearance. I am still a few months from a new purchase I want to get a few more thousand Kms on the Virago first. If any 950 riders could set my mind at rest I would hate to settle for another bike because I was to worried about the footboards digging in.Thank you in advance for anyone who can help me out. Will keep you posted on my decision. I will probably only need one person to tell me it will be fine and I will block out all the negative replies. I really want that bike. Cheers MURF
