Not to much out there other than making your own. But rivco offers a relocation kit but you need to buy their passenger floorboards which you might want to do anyway to make her really happy. Here's a couple of links

You can also try contacting this vendor they might be able to point you in the right direction. A lot of the suzuki's share the same parts so maybe one of these would work.

I swapped the passenger peg brackets from left to right. It pushes the pegs forward about 4 inches. Here's how I did it. I mounted the opposing pegs with the bottom bolts only, leveled the brackets, and drilled a new top mount hole. I also got some cheap universal floorboards so she could move her feet around to adjust her comfort level.

Josh, does this allow you to use the side covers,or do you remove them when you take your wife with you, and then put them back on later? I had thought of doing what you mentioned, but couldn't figure out the side covers without some cutting.
mycaljh,
I did a similar mod to Josh, with no drilling. My gf is 5'10" and has similar problems with the pegs being too close/high for her. I popped the side covers off and switched the passenger pegs to the other side. The link I got most info from was : http://www.m109riders.com/forums/sho...passenger+pegs
I did not drill anything, just switched sides the pegs are on. This effectively moved the pegs forward about 4 inches and down about 1/2 inch. My gf LOVES this set up and is now able to ride for a couple hours without complaints (although she still likes taking a break every hour or two "just because") I keep the bike with the 2 vertical side covers off, but all other covers remain on.
Hope this helped.

For anyone still looking for a relocation kit check this out ... http://www.canadasmotorcycle.ca/cobr...n-bracket.html
I'm going to order one and install this winter. Hopefully I can then put all the covers back on and keep a cleaner look.
