hello from austria

[TPamminger]

hello! I'm thomas and i am new here and looking forward for some interesting read about ariels. Currently i am rebuildung a 1938 vh. The bike has got patina but is not completely original...and in bits and pieces right now.

For this project i am looking for a rear chain guard in patina, used/abused condition.
And i am thinking of fitting a hs cam and followers.
So if anyone has something, please let me know!
Best regards from upper austria
Thanks, thomas

Hi Thomas , welcome , British Only Austria in Pettenbach could be handy for you

Hello Thomas and welcome to the AOMCC forum.
HS cams and followers are a bit difficult to find (and usually trashed) but the AOMCC single spares scheme has new camshafts with the postwar VCH profile.
But I think that maybe you should try the original set up first before you start spending !
Post a picture of your pile of parts please, we like that very much over here

I know british only in pettenbach, thats not far away from me...been there several times. I heard already that hs cams are not so easy to find. Right now there is a A6/664 cam in it. I drove it once when i bought the bike last year and thought there could be a bit more punch...
When i get to take some pics i will post them here
