I've scraped the peg feelers a total of 2 times. One of those times, it scared the sh-t out of me, and I pulled up and rode onto (thankfully) soft grass.

I hear a lot of people take them off. I've been hesitant to do so because, well, they were put there for a purpose, right? To warn you of imminent doom, that's why they're there. But is it counterproductive?
That "you're writing checks your body can't cash" warning ends up being an overload and can potentially CAUSE the very situation the system was designed to prevent!
So the simple solution is to just remove them, right? But then, how do you know you're getting too close? Sure, you can talk center stand scrape, stock peg scrape, but it's always the same scenario. The lower you go, the less you want to hear and feel "CCCRRRSHSHHSGHGHGHGH DANGER TO THE MANIFOLD!!!" in that situation.
I'm not saying I'm there all that much... just curious what people's opinions are
