I think either cutting this down or removing it and using p-clips helps.

I've got a pair of rearsets that Geoff made - I think they were original 1100s rearsets that he cut off the passenger part and filed down - they are really well done - he had them powder coated black but never put them on his bike. I think he got some S2R or S4R ones. I bought them off him for the cost of the powder coating. I didn't put them on as they dont have heel guards and went for the Evo ones instead. There might be a way of fitting some kind of heel guard to Geoff's somehow [beyond my capabilities though] You are more than welcome to have them as they are just sat in the garage not doing anything and knowing Geoff he would much prefer them being used. I think with these there isn't any issue with the master cylinder or the brake line as it fits in the same place [tucked away inside]

I can send you some photos if you want to see what the look like
I remember talking or him asking me advice about fitting s2r ones as I had rizomas on my 1100s. Even fitting them I had to modify the height and positioning of the reservoir which was done with some 3mm carbon fibre sheet. Colin accept the offer im sure I can assist making some heel guards with ease as I made some for an evo .
