Not a single shot of the bike going around a corner...

Those footpegs look very low. At 0:32 it looks like the rider's toes are only an inch away from the ground.

Based on :017 and 0:38 the footpegs appear to be at the same level as the center of the wheel.

An SV650 appears to have slightly higher pegs.

I agree they look low, but checking out other bikes they appear to be in similar places.

I used to scrape my toes when turning left at intersections on my old KTM if I didn't move my toes back on the peg. It's not a terribly unusual stance for a road bike.
