Nice! were all sprockets always cad plated? Cheers, Lex

Surplus to requirements is a 1940-1942 C10 rear hub, with sprocket, 2 bearing cups, of which one is pitted, 10 used spokes, and a worn loose sprocket, someone here was looking for 2 of these, but cannot find the post anymore? Cheers, Lex

Pictures don't work? can you send them please to welbike@welbike.net? I'm near Opheusden tomorrow, so could come and have a look. Cheers, Lex

Good old JW, he should have shipped his parts all over when it was still on the company he worked for! Toolbox will be OK again soon I see Ron! Cheers, Lex
-
Ah, I wish people would start their own thread, too confusing! Lex
-
Ok, didn't notice that, why did it come up? Cheers, Lex
-
Ron, it's a Miller headlamp! Cheers, Lex

Yes, I've had a couple of Shriners bikes, chromed and all! they do parades all over the US. Haven't counted the register for a while, will check but around 200, which is 5%? but only about 25/30% are MKI's I probably have yours in there Steve. but if you could email the numbers, I can update the list, have been keeping track of them for 30 or more years now, all confidential offcourse. Cheers, Lex

Well, for 1941 there just simply never weren't any civilian models, please state or pm me your frame number, and we'll sort it out. Cheers, Lex
-
Hahaha, yes! But the devil is in the details! Cheers, Lex

For good measure a factory shot of the engine of the Flea, I assume James had the same cap?? Lex
-
Here's Arnauds replica, he used a normal style fixing clip thingy. Cheers, Lex
-
Well, not to piss on your party Steve, there are 2-3 main variations, and I think the two above are postwar, all of mine, and the ones Arnaud made some replica's off, have the ridge where the HT cable goes in. Another difference is the knurled special nut that was used on the older ones, see picture. (this is a US thread, not normal) I think you can also see the details on the factory shots, will have a look. Lex

Ok, nice! But I must say, the Flea ferrules are totally different to anything else used on other bikes, I remember, as I had some made for my second Flea at the time. Cheers, Lex
-
Yes, you are right, it's different, I just had a look! Sorry, Lex
-
Ok, you beat me to it! But looks the same as for Flea's. Lex
-
Yes, there's special ferrules, will see if I have a picture later. Cheers, Lex Ps, thought you were talking about a Flea, but guess James?

There are about 6 types of tanks, I have one that looks G3WO on the bottom, but is not as long, here's an identifying chart for some of them. Cheers, Lex
-
Or repro's here: https://45parts.eu/index.php?action=article&aid=14305&group_id=10000097&lang=EN Cheers, Lex

You can try these guys, the owner has passed away, but his family is still selling stuff I think; http://www.wardepartment.co.uk/parts-spares/ If anyone is in need of an original late 741 horn face, I have one, the non script one, like Ron's above here, 80 pounds, plus postage at cost from Holland. Cheers, Lex

Here 2 pictures from the Model 640 manuals, seems the shorter pump was used here, but definetly spring clips, cannot find anything on the other type of spring clips. Also a scan of Bruce Palmers Harley book, about the pumps. Lex
-
Yes, there's 2 lenghts, and 3 types of clips, complicated! Below the 16" pump, the tall one. Will see if I can find out about the clips. Cheers, Lex
-
Military ones were different, they used the same type as for lorry headlamps. But then you probably need a different rim too. the civvy type is repro'd I think? Cheers, Lex
-
A chap in Denmark had some made, excellent quality, I'll see if he has any left. See picture. Cheers, Lex
-
If there's enough interest I will have some folding footrests cast in SG steel, I don't like the bronze repro's very much. Cheers, Lex
