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: 350 NH carburation
Nev - agreed undoubtable better but not quite as original. A Honda engine is better but only one person I know has replaced his Ariel engine with one. I use a MKII Amal on my sporty 500 , which is even better but even less original.

Re: 1930 Model B Running Problem
Always check the last job you did, 9 times out of 10 it is something to do with that. Best bit of wisdom I received as a young lad.
