Re: Singles - oil gauge takeoff
I don't bother with the 'worry' gauge on a single as they need very little oil to function and certainly not at any pressure. The usual failure is caused by a bit of dirt in the return side of the pump that will not show up on a gauge that after the novelty has worn off we all forget to look at, usu...

Re: Single flywheel A7-836
There may be the odd flywheel missing from my list. Drawing A7/856 dates to 1947 so A7/836 will be earlier. When and if you find it let me know where and I will amend the listing.

Re: 1920 Ariel
There is little difference between 1919 and 20 as far as i can see it is only the tank transfers, if I remember correctly and your bike has the later ones. Currently browsing a motorcycle museum in Chemnitz.

Re: ARIEL VG500 Drawing
I am glad to hear that you do not intend to restore the bike. What is 'OEL'? All parts, fittings and complete pipes are available. Oil pressure gauges are a specialist repair really, apart from basic cleaning. Sealing the fittings is a matter of using plumber's PTFE tape or other thread sealant, Wel...

I may well add them when I get back to it, which will not be until the autumn as I am out riding my bike during the summer. The quantity going to North Ame...
