Hello, has anyone fitted the low level P11 exhaust to N15CS

Hi,
I hope someone may have the easy answer to the problem I am trying to solve.
I hate the phrase "back in the day "
But, back in the day, when we had proper petrol
My new Amal concentric carb, bought to replace the TT carb on my 1959 Inter, seems to reach to the underneath of the tank even before I've fitted the cables. Is there such a part as a right-angled adaptor for the throttle and choke cables?
Just as a matter of interest, is there a record of the number of Combat engined Commando's produced?
Hi all,
Newbie here, I have just joined!
I was just replacing the screw in the crankcase with a stainless one, when I wondered about making a timing tool.
I've recently been in touch with a very helpful technical guy at Goodyear Tyres, who now own the Avon brand, along with Sumitomo.

Anyone know where can get it?
Last weekend, a strange noise occurred when I closed the throttle of my Model 50. It was a strange whining/rubbing noise. Like something was spinning on an axle or grinding against something.
I'm trying to track down a crankcase oil leak on my 1973 Commando.
As a compliment every now and then is important:
I really like the fact that we now get e-mail notifications when there's a reaction. Very, very useful!
Ta very much!

I,m fitting liners to a 750 block to get it back to std bore (it had damaged skirts) and as a matter of interest i weighed the new Hepolite branded std size pistons (made by JCC in Taiwan) and compared it to the +.060 thou JP pistons that were fit
Back in the day, as they say, there was talk of the famous "Twitter" on the overrun, Never happened for me Pw3 cam , Andover silencers or not. Then one day at Cirencester autojumble I acquired a pair of silencers,for a Tenner!

Took out the Knuckle Pin from the Change Quadrant, no problem
Royal Enfield Bullet alternators look very like the unencapsulated Lucas ones on Nortons. Would one fit? They are cheap and certainly effective - the one on my 1998 Bullet works a treat.
Hi guys
With the take over of Avon tyres by Goodyear, Roadrider tyres in 100/90 × 19" are getting hard to find.
After finally getting my rebuilt engine run in, its time to concentrate on the fine tuning.
Hi all.
