1958 XLCH Kicker Pedal

I think this is the only year H-D would have used this?  Maybe '59 - and I saw an original '60Ch had one, but probably added later.   I'd have to read for sure, since KRs and XRs didn't have manual starters.  This part originally had a straight rib sleeve (which was weather checked).  I use a length of rubber hose instead.  It appears H-D just disassembled a bicycle-style pedal, and only used the shaft, washer and nut. ?
