That's very curious - I'm amazed that we've never seen one of those before. There is also a field stand stop plate number 2454-40 in a 1944 parts list I have stored on my computer.

Can you show us what it looks like off the bike Vincent?

Nice video! I have not (yet) seen the engine apart, so this was very interesting!

The W/NG type "Field Stand" is a terrible thing for normal use . Nev

Worse than the 1951 side stand?

Maybe I'll start a poll!
