The pin that holds the rear brake foot pedal on my '63 VBB is missing.
I need some help here, before the pedal slides off and lose my rear brakes.
1) where can I get the lost pin
2) how to reinstall the new pin and prevent it from coming out,
Thanks!

From memory I think the pedal has to be pushed fully down to get access to the pin... have a look at the pedal itself to confirm. Hope these pictures are of some help.   The angle on this one is about 10-15 degrees off that seam line, where the other one is more like 30ish. On some bikes you may need to remove a piece of floor trim to push pedal down enuff get good access to that pin or at least pull the rubber strip out. |
