My best suggestion is to crank up the rebound damping and preload to maximum which should keep your pegs off the deck. You don't say how much you weigh so I'm guessing it's not much more than 200lbs. I have my preload set to medium and rebound at maximum. I make sure the air in my tires is set correctly. I have yet to touch down anything and I ride fairly aggressively.

I'm 175lbs with rear shock set to factory setting, the bike would squat in turns and scraped the pegs. Sicne then I've dropped the forks by 14mm & installed racetech 1.0kg+ spring and raised the rear preload by 1.5 lines & it's totally a different "Stream"!
