Not seen on their website. Perhaps they now favour the 'roll'.
I adjusted the gear pedal upward this afternoon but no time to take it out for a ride. Feels better though, just sitting on the bike.

I have the shorter lever on my bikes, works well, stock BM side stand is. Still a pain but you get used to it.
Ta, I'll have a think about that
Or the Migsel option. It does require modding the lever though. https://www.migsel.com/store/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=51
GLS - Any chance of a link to the Siebenrock pegs? Their website isn't the easiest to work out. The ones I looked at don't look as wide as those in the OP.

These are what I ordered - the on-line picture is a bit shitty. You get what I have pictured. https://www.siebenrock.com/en/chassis/frame/2943/lowered-driver-foot-pegs?c=634
I've got a Migsel 'roll' on order. We'll see what happens if/when it turns up. The didn't charge for shipping...
Ordered. I'll probably go for the Migsel also ...Here you go, some pictures of what I have.
Is that a Surefoot sidestand, Andy?
Also, I did a quick search on that Alpha ref and came up with this ...
https://boxer-gummikuh.de/p/fussrasten-vorne-schalthebel-alpha-fuer-bmw-r-80-100-gs-247e-depot-sp They seem to be out of stock? If that's the price for all 3 items, it's a good deal!

Yes that’s the kit, I have it on two bikes and I’m pleased. As you say good value.
Not a sure foot because the bike is fairly moded it’s a one off.

No that’s using a modded Migsel side stand and fastway pegs I think.
I fitted the Fastway pegs to my early paralever GS. The pegs were sold to fit a 1200GS twin cam, but bolt straight on to the prettier, earlier bike. The Migsel roller is fit to a standard shortened bmw lever.
Fatway footpegs give a Great Wide & Comfy spot for your feet. In a perfect world an inch lower would be better !!

Nice thing about the Fastway peg is all the extra width is behind the centre line so helps a lot with room on for the gear-lever.
They aren’t as low as the other though.

I lowered Jills 100GS foot rests. Simply cut them off and with a small plate lowered them verticaly. Worked great.
Had the excuse to go for a much longer ride this week, A-roads from Salisbury to Bristol and a lot of city riding when I got there (55 miles). Similar on the way back. Changing gear was not really an issue with my adjusted (not shortened yet) gear lever but it does need improvement. Braking was ok but I might adjust it to reduce the travel a bit. The riding position was lovely.
Migsel have acknowledged the order so the 'roll' is probably on its way. Not as quick as Siebenrock.

Santa arrived yesterday with my prezzie. I fitted the gear side and agree with everything you said above. Not had time to fit the brake side yet and am , like you, awaiting Mr Migsel.
Both pegs fitted. Shins are closer to the Bings and will have to sit a bit further back, I think. That means the single seat will have to make way for the dual seat, we'll see after a test ride. No sign of Mr Migsel yet.
30 miles or so on a wee test run and they're certainly comfier than the oem pegs. Gear changing is OK down the way. Not so great going up the box where I had to use the instep of my foot rather than the toe. Brake side is OK and will be a bit better with a bit of brake adjustment. The rear brake on the GS is um ... er ... not so great in the first place!
