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

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.
