    Solid brass kickstart pedal - where can one be found?

    I am slowly putting together parts for a special build project. One of the myriad of parts I need is a solid brass kickstarter pedal. The V Twin models (6200328 & 630-401) that J&P sells has a brass finish, but apparently is not solid brass. If I ever finish this bike, I expect to kick it to life on a regular basis. Brass finish would wear off in no time the way I hope to use the bike.

    What I want is the open grate design. Does anyone have an idea of where I might get one?

      Alas, those pedals are die cast metal and not brass. They have a brass finish, but are not solid brass. When I get REALLY serious about this build, I may have to have foundry cast what I want and have a machinist do the finish work -- especially the bearing surface.
