Riders come in all shapes and sizes, and so do their feet. Stock rearsets are designed to be a compromise between ground clearance and comfort while handing the basic duties of shifting and braking. Aggressive riding requires pegs to be higher and farther back for ground clearance, while cruising the streets is more comfortable with the pegs lower and more forward.
Some rearsets offer multiple positions for the best of both worlds. Many also allow the shifting pattern to be reversed (GP style), which can make for easier gear changes during track riding or drag racing. Regardless of how you configure them, aftermarket rearsets look trick, can be more comfortable and are an easy modification to customize the efficiency in how you shift and brake.
