Re: The O'rourke Arrow Racer replica

Do you know Ian Austin, who is doing a similar thing, I have some pictures but it shows flanged carbs, think it was a works replica for Miller or Sandford.

Re: Timing pinion 1928 Model C

Thanks everyone, I would have bought a new pinion just to get some dots, but have had no luck sourcing one; unless you know different?

Re: Timing pinion 1928 Model C

Timing pinion 1928 Model C

It appears there are three optional keyways; when i removed the cover the gear fell out so what is the best keyway to use and why?

I was thinking it might stop oil seepage rather than breather?

Re: Piston problems Model C

Thanks for your suggestions, but its none of the above, with the exception of perhaps being a little too enthusiastic!
Barrel being lightly honed then its back together for another go.

Piston problems Model C

Rebuilt bike a couple of years ago, set of this morning on a run 18 miles in piston nipped up! Been running great, plenty of oil?

Cant get into member file area for technical stuff

I can clearly get into the members forum to post but the box to get into the members area doesn't work, there was a post early where it was suggested to use the link posted and ask for a reminder, but I though we all had the same login to the area. My magazine is in garage, has the two login details...
