They may have originaly had a H shift.
Some car engined bikes did.

One trick is the run a cable to a lever on the bars,
or a solenoid wired up to a switch,
that moves the shift LEFT to RIGHT.

Foot moves gears backwards / forwards
for 1st and 2nd,

Lever or Solenoid knocks the lever across,

then foot choses between 3rd and 4th.

Sounds complicated but most car engined bikes
have huge amounts of torque so they are less
fussy about which gear they are in.
