I have recently bought a 500cc Norton Cammy and the guy spoke of a bronze skull head. What does this look like, how do I find it and how do I know what f this bike has one please ? This is my first Norton to restore.

Paul Knapp and Robert Tuck kindly responded to my previous posts about my Amal 276 pre mono carb.

Wanna get rid of your surplus money?

Here ya go:

I am restoring a 1935 Model 20 and i have a question about the oil tank and the 3 connection from it?

My mag chain goes from slack (< 1/2") to really tight as I turn the engine. I've fitted a new inlet cam bush so would guess that that end of the chain is running true so the only other culprit must be a wonky armature shaft?

I have just fitted a new clutch lever, cable and clutch plates to my lever operated AMC clutch and want to find the sweet spot for light clutch operation without clutch slip.

For anyone interested, I have just purchased and tested some BP Ultimate 97 in the midlands area and, to the limits of the test, it contained no ethanol.

Good evening to all.

Hi, I have a leak around the fuel tank mounting stud. Does anyone know someone who can fix it in the Bristol area? Regards Ade.

Noticed there is a lot of messages (last year) on bike lift ramps. To save me trawling through them, does anyone have a preference.

My Commando was delivered to Gus Kuhn in May 1970.

Did Kuhn put on dealer stickers on the bikes?

If so how did they look and where were they located?

I've conclude that my '55 ES2 (but it applies to all bikes) is running somewhat retarded. I started it on full advance with no problem. The question is, the book says 47? advance but that was for National Benzole Mixture (or similar).

Hi on my Dominator 99 i seem to be missing a part from behind the stator to hold it in place? can any one confirm what is missing and what it is called.

I bought my 1952 plunger ES2 with an Indian Enfield carb fitted because the previous owner couldn't get it run properly with its rather worn original pre mono Amal 276.

Hello All,

I put my crankcases back together today--I used the gasket from a set i bought. I nearly put the cams in the wrong holes. I looked at the manual and it identifies the exhaust as being the forward shaft.

Eee, there's always something!

Re-assembling the primary cover I discovered that the thread for the drain bolt has stripped. It looks to me as if this can be tapped out to take a slightly larger bolt - any advice on size/thread?

Recently purchased a basket case Jubilee and in the process of building it? I have 3 barrels stamped 20749RH, 20747LH, and 20717?

Also 3 heads stamped X20717RH, stamped AM X20715LH also stamped AM and 22941RH

Can anyone help with a problem with the cam followers on a 1972 750 commando.

Advanced apologies for perhaps going over old ground but I have just fitted a Boyer micro digital ignition system that I've had for ages to my 1969 750 Commando.

Apolgies fir using this section but I cannot remember hiw to place an wanted ad!

Whilst riding my m50 I heard a loud bang from the forks and they then topped.

Does anyone happen to have mud guards for a 1959 Jubilee they would be willing to part with or are you aware of others that would fit please?

My newly rebuilt Electra is in need of a sidestand. Does anyone have a spare they would like to sell or know of another that would fit. I know the club has new ones but I don't want to part with 129 pounds to get one.
