No, the CP has a bigger splined hole than the B52.

Quite different in appearance, check archive parts lists. Burman never changed pt. no's. as AMC did circa 1952

Bit puzzled why you need to raise your foot. I had small size 7 now 8 feet never had to raise my foot on any bike. Have you the wrong footrest or it needs adjusting.?

no it fouls the footrest if I lower it, I guess it was so for the damn great squaddie boots worn at the time, and I 'spect a bit of wear in the selectors. Kind regards

Study these two pictures side by side, you may spot why you have a problem. One pic is 1946 the other 1952
