I agree but the customer is always right (sometimes). This is going to take a bit of fabbing for sure...

Sometimes  but.  I did have a customer who had inherited his dad's knuckle head.  He brought it to me to get running. He wanted to restore it. Although it was not in original condition I talked him out of doing it. I told him after all it was his Dad's bike. If he did anything to it, It would not be his" Dad's bike"  ever again.

If you can get the JayBrake set up I think it will allow you to keep that welded on leg, which is where you will mount the left peg... I think, because I have not done this.  Newer bikes have the forward board mount bolted on.

Like said , if you cut mounts ,do it so can be reattached , I don't see it as being that big of deal , get set off forwards off ebay for FXR ( tons of them cheap )and do a little fabbing
