Did who use Jaeger what?

Sorry, did the motorcycle manufacturers during the war also use Jaeger ammeters instead of Lucas 

must be the flat glass of the headlights that make them look bigger 😳

PS and also a dome glass CZ27 ammeter with illumination panel inside. Ron

 

Did they use Jaeger ones as well ?.

Thanks Ron,

A 1939 bike would most likely have had  a spigot drive Jaeger pattern speedo. Ron

So many 8 inch headlights in one shed 😊

Could someone tell me the correct Smiths Speedo model for a 1939 3SW and a picture if possible please.

TIA

Can these regulators be restored ?.

Ron, 

when you painted your 3HW exhaust, how many coats did you apply ........ 6 ?.

The exhaust was purchased unfinished, I then sprayed it in a good quality dull silver heat proof paint....

Steve,

Which make of paint ?.

Graham.

I did wonder, as I’d seen the finned one on your 3HW, I just thought it was a later mod.

Did you buy your exhaust already dulled down ?

Where did you source your headlight ?

Graham.

Did you get it from Brian Tillin ?, I’ve just bought one off him with his front brake rod kit, good luck sourcing the correct handle bar levers.

The front brake works ok, but not brilliant but the shoes look too shiny apart from the edges !?.

New parts arrived yesterday.

I had a reply today from Tomas Horice, he said as they are made in batches it would take a year to complete the order !.

Good afternoon, 

Has anybody used the Indian made seat springs ?, or anywhere in GB to buy ?.

TIA

Yes good idea Ron, I had a 1990 Harley 1200 sportster new and all the chrome was replaced under warranty, even HDs screaming eagle fork brace when doing it up the chrome cracked 

Graham

Thanks Ron.

Thanks Ron,

after I peeled myself off the floor when I did the currency converter, I think I need 351 left and right, 356 left and right and a 358 ? . 

Where’s the best place to buy one from ?.

TIA

I’ve spoken to Ace Classics and they can supply 1” levers but the actual lever won’t have the same curve, is there anybody else selling them with the right curve and the decompesser lever is not available by Ace either.

They did say some Czech guy that makes them, but you can only contact him through going to a bike show.

TIA
