Peg relocation?
Funny guys I slept next to it.
Here is one thing I noticed today and kind of remembered about the bike.
For me the pegs could be a bit farther back. Not a huge amount but some. Standing leaves me kind of crammed up and sitting makes me feel like I could use a little pressure forward on the pegs to keep me from leaning back in the wind. Maybe a tad hard to explain. I get to ride so many bikes I think I have a good feeling that peg relocation would do a ton for me.
It is enough to make me have to think a bit harder about how the bike will work for me.
It seems like ludicrous but my TW200 is better on the road an the ergos work better (I have risers).
Tonight I road home a 2014 BMW r1200gs adventure. I won't go on about that bike but it also has a much more natural foot placement.
As a reference I am just about 6' also and 33.75 inseam. The KLX is not too tall at all.
