BSA BANTAM D3 D5 D7 D10 D14 ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKETS 90-4235 (H125)

Clive Cottrell

Hi John,

Thank you very much for the excellent quality pattern engine mounting plates you supplied for my Bantam.  They are certainly an improvement over the original plates!  Also thanks for the speedy delivery.  It may be a while, but a photo of the plates in position will eventually be forthcoming!

All the best,

Clive

TRIUMPH 350 500 650 LOWER FORK BUSH LOCK RING TOOL 60-0572 (H219)

REPLY TO COMPLAINT FROM Terry Macdonald

Further to our telephone conversation, having measured the components could I point out that the machined slots in the aftermarket component are only 1.315″ across flats and the original equipment bush retainer were 1.275″ across flats. The problem being in the reproduction of the lock ring not the tool, something I would have thought a person who has rebuilt 340 sets of Triumph Forks could see.

  I do not see that the problem lies with the tool, though a little dressing would overcome this, my offer of refund on return of the tool in resalable condition still stands.

I will amend the listing now I am aware of the problem, but I now see from other companies advertising similar tools that non-original Lock Rings are causing similar problems.

Regards

John Thomas

Royal Enfield Bullet Rear Wheel Chain Adjusting Cams (H110)

Phil Willis 1954 Royal Enfield G2 Bullet

Good afternoon John just a line to say thank you very much for sending the wheel adjusters I ordered for my old Bullet. I made a small sleeve/washer to fill the right hand side but the left hand side was a straight fit.

As you can see from the photos it’s a great job.

Many thanks again John.

Kind regards

Phil Willis

BSA B25B Electric Box Mounting Brackets 83-3813 83-3814 (S345 S346) and Horn Mounting Brkt (H36)

Clive Dackus

Hi John 

Here some Photos of mounting bracket fixed to the bike. Strangely the fixing screw head for the front bracket hits the top of the electrical box. I don’t know if the original bolt had a thinner head, whether the rubber grommets available now are the incorrect height or the fixing point on my frame is the wrong shape? Anyway I made a spacer/sleeve to go under the grommet which drops the electrical box lid down enough to clear the bolt head.
