Just been looking at some Dexta photos on the web and have noticed that they all have a left hand footrest. Been to check on mine and its missing?? Ive read about this before, something to do with a live drive? Mine does not have that. Any ideas for the missing footrest..........

Don't think it's to do with Live Drive.

My non-live drive Dexta only had a footrest on the right with a cap on the left.

I purchased another footrest and just swapped it for the cap as footrests are not left/right handed. I see Agriline is now selling footrests.
All the best,

My Super also had no left foot peg. I took the right one and turned it over for the left side to get fresh chequer grip and got another good one of a scrap tractor to put on the right.

Just to be different my 64 Super Dexta has a footrest on clutch side but none on brake side. Think I will get one.

I have two footrests on two of my Dextas, but only one on that Roadless. I thought maybe it was because of the front wheel outlet, but now I see it is common.

It may have something to do with the clutch pedal on the Dexta's being so high causing the pedal to hit your leg.
Just a thought probably wrong.

Mark i think that is true..
It would be awkard to drive with that footrest when the clutch is set high
