Fixed short foot pegs 1961 G80cs

That looks a really neat job, what year is the bike that you've done the modification to?

Frame is a duplex and going by the numbers in Bacon's book is a '64 CS frame.
The engine is a '56 to '59 350 short stroke but doesn't have the date stamped in the engine number so I don't know what year it is.
So a mongrel

Hi I have a 1955 G3LCS and like you was not happy with the short footrests, not sure what the different dimensions are to the later CS models but I got some 20mm square section steel tubing and fitted it over the footrest, drilled and tapped the end of the footrest, filed a washer down to the size of the tube and loctited a small screw to hold it, you then have a choice of footrest rubbers to fit.
My internal square section rubbers are about 900mm/3 1/2" long and have been on the bike for number of years with no problem at all.

New and very well made road pegs are available from Walridge Motors, Canada.

If you got these, the short comp foot pegs shown by J_B are easily modified by cutting off the outer end; an extension bar turned to desired diameter is then welded on by full penetration weld. The outer upswept shape can be replicated by turning and grinding.
