Hello all,
I am having footrest arms for my flying flea fabricated. I am hoping someone can send specs of some sort. The length of the arm center hole to center. The length of the peg mount. etc. It would be great if I could get some good photos. I am not sure how to keep the arm from moving after it is bolted on? The shaft I purchased is not pinned. Any thoughts?
Thank you very much.
Jeff

Try the guys at this site for WD motorcycles:
http://www.wdbsa.nl/ Although it's headlined as a BSA M20 site they seem to have an interest in all sorts of military motorcycles.
REgards, Mark

I made a pair up some years ago from drawings which are now long gone but I used old pushbike pedal cranks and cut them down. The owner supplied me with a piece of hex sleve that I welded in. Sorry can't be much more help

Hi,is you flea ex military or civvie, as the footrests are not quite the same/ folding/nonfolding. They mount on a hexbar to stop rotation. I take it you want the dimensions from hexbar hole to brakepedal hole. let me know as there is one in the garage.

Hello Vince,
Thank you for replying. Yes I would like any info on the peg set-up you can provide. I have a military bike. I did notice a difference in the pegs in some pictures. I purchased fold up pegs from Hitchccocks. Not sure if i will use them. I would like to make it war time authentic. Also, does the kickstand rest against the break lever when in the up position? I purchased a stand from Hitchcocks.
I really appreciate your advice.
Thank you.
Jeff
