I'm starting to do a lot more interesting wheelies than just stand up and sit down at the moment, and I'm concentrating a fair bit on standing on my seat.

All was well, until counterbalancing with 1 foot, and my planted foot slipped, resulting in an unintentional no-footer, and crushed nads.

I don't want to cut my rear fairing, but I want something I can happily stand 1 or 2 feet in for extra grip. Anything out there designed for this? Or any ideas? I've considered grip tape from skateboards, but i'd rather have more of a foot hold.

Some kind of rack would be the obvious choice?

Could always then add extensions to more easily keep your feet on.

Mounting the rack is the issue though. On the crf, the plastics covers pretty much the entire subfram.

I think i might just fuck it off, cut a hole and buy a spare plastic panel.
