No, not tryin to save money, more just making an interesting project, being as I've done metal fab work for many years. But I have a lot to learn about this project I guess. I didn't know there was a problem w/ the footpegs yous talk about.
But after making the RH pattern out of 1/8" alumunum, and bolting it onto the bike, I got a whole new idea. Instead of reusing the original plate/footpeg brake pedal plate assy, I now think I will make a new brake pedal shaft, and a new pedal stop, and weld them right onto the new 3/8 ext plate. I will also weld the new cable holder in its original location instead of bolting it. So the only bolts will be the 2 engine bolts, and possibly a cross tube bolt. I will use the existing brake pedal and footpeg, and I will still need to make the 4" brake cable extention.
I believe this will look cleaner, and not have any part of an "add on" look. If anyone sees a problem w/ this, please give your comment.
I know the left side is a different story, I haven't looked at that much yet.
