Well, after a trip around my local round-about, I scraped the peg. This got me thinking, I wonder what lean angle I hit, and I wonder what the impact of removing the knob on the end of the peg would have on lean angle.
Note... these calculations reflect the max angle before scrape.
This is a static model. No suspension movement or weight distribution factored in
The following attached image is the calculations behind the results, but for those of you quick glancers...
Max Lean angle stock Pegs: 39.7*
Max Lean angle Peg knob Removed: 42.2*
As you can see, you can gain up to 2.5* more of a Lean angle from removing the Peg knob.
Measurements done with tape measure, Allow +/- 5% error on all values
