1980's Jota 120 Rearset

[RGScott]

Hi All
I'm looking to modify a set of original rear sets, not new copies, to the attached pic's.
Following other members comments the 1980-1982 Jota 120 rearset with rubber footrest are what I require.
I do not need the frame plates, just pegs and control arms.
Touch base if you can help, cheers

There are many sources in Germany, just google and you will find some.

Prices are about 100- 130 ?

Thanks Andre, I am after an original set not new. Cheers Scott

The pegs remind me more of Menani or Moto Italia items.

Hi Gerald, thanks that is an interesting view. I'll do some research on these. cheers Scott

Hi Scott, the lever in your pix is original, the peg is not. Original pegs have a threaded hole and a screw to go in.
Are you looking for a complete set of original pegs and levers or pegs only?
Ciao, Gert

120 jota?  I can see an engine mount in the background.  Original 120 jota has that style of peg, but with a rubber over it, different to rgs.

I have these if they are of interest to you. Approx 9cm long with threaded hole M12x1,25.

Exactly, like these. The rubbers had the nasty habit of turning upside down, so they were often removed and used 'bare'.

Ouch! They look positively dangerous in a crash. I use a Jota gear lever and made my own pegs with a threaded M8 hole so if they really hit the deck hard, they break off. I can make it home by using a pillion peg in its place then.

Hi Gert
I am after the complete rear set for both sides.
These are original as fitted by factory in 1983 but clearly the pegs are not exactly the same as the Laverda road bikes hence the post.
Maybe the factory took the Jota 120 blank and had peg knurled? Maybe the peg was used by another brand?
Let me know what you have available.
Cheers Scott

Interesting point and shouldn't be too hard to change. Thanks

Thanks for the pictures. I wonder what the diameter of the peg would be if I had these Knurled? Cheers Scott

No, these rear sets are not on a Jota 120 but a great guess. I hope to have this bike at the Syd event end of this month.

Hi Gerald, thanks for pictures of the set of pegs. What are these pegs off? I assume the majority of the peg is hollow?
I'll need to grab some measurements off mine, should have done this. I'll come back to you, Cheers Scott

They may not be on a 120 Jota but they are 120 Jota footpegs.

 

[RGScott]

They may not be on a 120 Jota but they are 120 Jota footpegs.

Hi Grant, this appears to be the consensus view, but Jota 120 pegs are not knurled to be used as plain peg. Time to grab some measurements then if ok find a set.

 

[Gerald]

Hi Scott,

I seem to recall that they were for a homemade rearset kit, hence the M12x1,25 thread pitch.
They are hollow.

Regards Gerald

I have a 120 Jota here right now with exactly the same pegs as in your photos.
The 120 Jota pegs came with rubber covers, knurled underneath.

Thanks Grant, so not the same as picture in Marnix's post #8 in this thread which are knurled but the knurling is not the same or close to mine peg.
if not too much trouble can you send a picture?
If same that is very helpful indeed, now just need to find a set cheers Scott
