hello everybody

My 750 Commando has sprung a leak from the cylinder base which I'm not confident of repairing. Can anyone suggest a dealer in Northumberland who is able to tackle this for me? (Peter Elliott is greatly missed).

I'm in the process of starting to reassemble a 1938 model 18 that I acquired in 20 or so boxes. This is my first prewar and don't have access to other bikes to review.

Hi Guys, I am about to start a restoration on my 1957 ES2, it is red and as I have seen Dominators of the same year in red could this be its original colour?

Are there any members who would like to have a Somerset Branch set up? Somerset is quite a large wide area and extends nearly all the way to Bristol in the East which does have a branch.

Hello, first time forum poster, long time stalker. Probably met quite a few of you at the rallys.

As i was trying to say:

My 1956 88 stripped the teeth on the Bakelite Dynamo drive.

I bought a new one from RGM. Later Les Emery suggested a steel one which I fitted.

This is my firstgo at attaching Pictures so please forgive me if it fails. This is as most of you know an illustration of the wd 16h tool kit. Item 20 is specified as 1/8" x 1/4" Box spanner.

Firstly hello to all as a returning member. I recently aquired a Triton from South Africa to go with the 650ss Dunstall Dominator in the stable. The frame is a model 88 1954. The engine is a T120R unit motor June 1970.
