My shin is taking a bashing

[Goretex]

Hey is there any way to move either the kick or the peg? 7 out of 10 times my shin will it the peg.
I have cuts,Bruises and swollen bumps on my shin already and have only had my bike for a little over 24 hours.

All help appreciated

I used to bash my shin a lot when I first stared riding bikes, then I stopped, its probably the way your doing it.

Yeah, experience is the key! Give it time, adjust your riding style slightly on the bike. Or try some soccer shin pads in the mean time!

Hockey or Soccer shin pads normally do the trick

my shin gets smashed on the kick start all the time on my other bike so i just where shin pads now works great

hop on the other side and use your left leg, then altonate. Though its a bit unco and time wasting if your racing n stuff

ummm buy some smaller legs or shin pads if u cant afford the new legs
