I did read that Roger and it had me just as confused.
Your write up on Drags states 45-48 had the MU42 (Domed), yet the 47 and 48 parts books state a DU42 (Flat)

And then we have the brochures showing flat from after the war until 48, then on domed

Id just like confirmation on which is the correct headlight for my bike, the 1947 - 1948 parts book shows a DU42R. Am i correct in saying that this is the flat glassed lens variety and not the domed MU42?

Josh

I new about the W/NG having the higher ground clearance but i wasn't aware of what the different dimensions. With regards to the tapered steering bearing, i believe Drag's do now...

Not sure i understand what 1932 VH dispatched to Coventry with a 1930 model E engine dispatched to Australasia means? So it left the factory as a 1932 VH and was dispatched to Coventry. Was the 1930 engine added by a dealer, there is a record of it so guessing something "Official" occurred...

Does the engine/frame number match the records Rog?

Spotted this on Ebay, is located in Australia. A quick search shows the frame and engine are from different years so not matching. Not sure about the rest of the bike. I do not know the seller, just one i spotted on Ebay and thought others may be interested. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/335054555584?...

Thanks everyone, will call the seller tomorrow and hopefully can pick them up.
