Rohan said:P.S. This is what the underside of an ohv Norton single tank should look like.

Inluding the tank serial number stamped on the right side middle there.
Year, and individual tank number ?
This one is 47 = 1947*, not sure if they were all the same or not...
(* at least thats what it is assumed it means).
Strange sunburst lighting effect in this pic....
Lurkingclass said:Thanks Bernhard. Are you aware of a functional alternative for the 10TT9? Unfortunately, the 1 5/32 10TT9 I had went with my BSA when I sold it. I've got a pair of 1 1/8" Amal 289 carbs as well as 389/Monoblocs up to 1 3/16". I might give one of those carbs a try.
Any idea how the new Amal TT carbs work? They're pricey, but if they work well, I may take the plunge. http://www.amalcarb.co.uk/buildCarb_TT.aspx
Also considering a new BTH magdyno- any input? http://bt-h.biz/mag-dyno.htm

Jonwawaone said:I'd you want to sell the foot pegs I have a use. I have aplunger frame with Manx/inter position lugs on the lower rails. Laydown box ands no clearance for a kickstart. Folding would be good here .....
Lurkingclass said:Were there any Inter or Manx bikes with folding footpegs as a factory item? The pegs came from the UK, and they're definitely not a home-made item.
speirmoor said:For my own curiosity why are these called gardengate,do the frames resemble gates or something?. At the 2012 INOA rally there was no entrant in this class if I remember correctly.
I'm sure i have read that somewhere as well, but can't find where at the moment.worntorn said:Perhaps it was named for its handling characteristics. ......I do think it is intended to be a derogatory name which refers to the flex problems and heavy weight of the older frame type, but will have to do more reading to be sure.
