Hi,
I have four complete Amal Ltd. carburettors:
-275 / 145R (BIrmal) for Triumph 3S
-276BL / 1A for Royal Enfield G. I want to apply it to my Triumph 3SW. It has an elongated body connection.
- 276 / 014R from the Polish motorcycle Junak M07 350ccm from 1956-59
-L I98 - 1" (there's R014 stamp on the side?). Made of Mazak and covered with chrome.  Do you know what type of motorcycle it was and in which motorcycle?

I will be grateful for your help.

Pawel

Your also,

the cover like new.

Before that, I tried to cover the bodies with chrome.
I tried a cracked carburetor for testing. During etching, it underwent further destruction and intercrystalline corrosion. When galvanizing, the bath is not so aggressive. Does not destroy the material.

Hi,
thank you for the information and confirmation of my way of thinking.
I also thought it was paint.
As the Mazac body oxidizes, I covered it with copper and brass. Only then did I paint it with heat-resistant varnish and fired it at 220 degrees Celsius. It is resistant to gasoline. Maybe the color is not identical, but the nuances of the shades cannot be selected. The paint is English.

 The rest of small parts was covered with copper and polished zinc.

Hi,
How Amal carburettors were finish? I have the version in dull chrome plated and painted.

Was it dependent on the military or civilian version? Or maybe it depended on the more expensive or cheaper model?
Best regards

Hi ,
Thanks for the information Richard.
I know they were producing good quality products. I didn't know it was for Amal. This cast looks better than those cast at the Amal factory.

Hi,
decided to fix the old fork with corrosion.
Steps to repair:
1. cut in the place of the old repair
2. design and drawing of "prostheses" is a workshop
3. design of wheel axle holders
4. assembly of "prostheses" with handles - welding
5. assembly of new elements with the original fork.
It is still necessary to set the parallelism and axiality after welding, grind and it will be ready for initial assembly and fitting.
Best regards

Hi,
I started putting together Amal carburetors.
Found an my garage AMAL carburetor with a BIRMAL body. Carburetor bought 15 years ago from Hitchcock.
Was Birmal a supplier to Amal?
Best regards.

P.S. Brian replied.

Hi Ron,
Thank you for your help.
I ordered two exhaust kits from Armor. I'm waiting for the shipment.
Best regards.

Hi,
Another problem that arose was the positioning of the rubbers on the fuel tank.
I attach 4 versions.

Should the line of the bottom edge of the fuel tank "a" be parallel to the lower edge of the rubber "b" or to the sign Triumph "c"?

The top of the rubber is not perfect. Is this the standard?

As always, I count on your help.
Regards.
Paul

Hello,

thank you Ron for your help.

Do you know what is the distance (a and b) between front license plate clamps from the edge of the mudguard?

How is the upper and lower chain guard attached?Could someone send me the pictures?

Thank you.

Pawel

Thank you very much.

Brian replied at this second.

Do you know who did exhaust and speedometer gear for flyingfleasteve.

Pawel

Ron, thank you for your help.
The parts from Jan have arrived.
I have license plate holders from ebay, they look similar to those in the photos.
Unfortunately, Brian doesn't answer. I wanted to order front brake rod kit and handlebar 1 ".

Maybe the address is wrong? I have: briantillin385@gmail.com

Best regards

Pawel

Hi Steve,
congratulations on the reconstruction. Very good work.
I have the same design for two 3 S.W.

Where did you buy exhaust and speedometer gear?

Best regards from Poland.

Pawel

Thank you very much Ron.

Probably this is it.

Pawel

Thanks.

I know that. In Poland it is forbidden to mount a license plate. I just want to mount only the handles. Plates only during shows and in garage.
Some people wear soft plastic boards, but better not.
The new Benelli Leoncio has a Lion on the front fender and is approved for Europe. How is this possible???
If you had a sketch or an exact photo of these handles, please help me.
Regards

Pawel

Hello after vacation.
I have a question, what was the mounting of the front license plate to the mudguard in 1940 model SW?

It is different from the civil one.
Maybe someone has photos of this part?
Best regards.

Pawel

Hello again,
can anyone help me recognize what this fork is.
It was mounted to my Triumph.
The handlebar grips are from Triumph.
I think an English product, because it has inch threads. The double brake cable holder is characteristic.
Best regards
Pawel

Oh yes.

Sorry Rik. 

Best regards

Pawel.

Thank you Ron.

Very interesting informations.

Pawel

Hi Ron.
Pictures (from you) from the Triumph factory show that the motorbikes have registration numbers painted on a plate on the front fender.
There are no numbers painted on the back.
They also don't have rear lights.
Didn't the military bikes have numbers and lamps on the back?

Regards

Pawel

Ron, Belzona is English.

Pawel

Hi Ron,

Thank you very much.

I make the drawnigs for Brian - crankshaft of course.

Best regards from sunny Łódź. It is not raining.

Thanks Ron,
I'll make a drawing with dimensions.
