Also, changing the clutch helper spring will help get rid of some of that rebound pushing your foot backwards.

I don't think you have a bigger foot. My clutch is really really up high. Like I have to let go all the way and just a tad bit at the end is when the gear engage it. And the kick back is ridiculous too. Is like if someone was kicking me on the foot. After a good 20 min ride my left leg HURTS !!!!
