If you want a nice looking replacement for your pegs try these:

I have them on my SFS (the stock pegs were way too slippery) and they work great.

And for a replacement clutch cover, you can get the speedymoto one:

I'm not sure if it's a cover like what was posted before, but I'd say it's pretty hard to go wrong with speedymoto quality.  Plus if it fades early you can contact them and they will reanodize it for free for you.

+1 on the pegs..  Biggest confidence booster ive done to my bike to date.

The Rizoma rearsets are quite pricy, but they give you HUGE options on adjustability.

Kinda tough to see, but the peg itself has 3 locations left to right and 3 up and down.  Also the shifter and brake levers clamp onto a spline...so theres coarse adjustment, and the shift/brake peg itself is on an eccentric...fine adjustment.  Also, they come with the super grippy pegs (silver though, not black pictured above.)

I got the bike back last week and adjusted the shifter, so now my boot can fit under it without requiring me to be a contortionist.  I've ridden several times since I got it, and I'm getting a little more comfortable on it.  I'll snag the clutch cover and a set of brake/clutch levers at some point, I'm still paying for the repairs.  Thanks for the pointers everyone!
