Low Brow Customs in the States do a simple rubber one for 14 dollars, (about a tenner), plus postage. Depending how I get on with kickstarting my own bike, I might end up buying one of these myself.

They do a lot of other styles plus loads of XS650 custom parts. Miles at Jackhammer in Farnborough is a dealer for them, as well as selling other US made bobber parts.

Be easier to use a bike/bmx pedal than a harley pedal tat is designed to swing out at the top.
