Agree, there’s something calming about hearing and watching them ticking over. The governor regulates speed from 375 to 475rpm. Further improvements/repairs - the small end bush needs replacing. Magneto needs. Bit of cleaning too. Was thinking of the local shows indeed Ian. I would love to know why this engine was sitting in the loft connected to nothing. For some reason it was replaced with a Lister 4hp which was still connected to the old mill until late Dec 2021. It is now in my care as well. The last time the mill was used would have been around the mid 60’s. So it is at least 60 years since the Fairbanks ran.

Not sure Ian must have changed with a software update, so annoying.

Sad times Julie, but you are left with a manageable number of bikes!

Ian, I had exactly the same problem, I posted on here maybe about 3 to 4 weeks ago. The easiest way I found round it was to screen shot the pics and post the screen shot, there was quite a few suggestions on here to get round it too. Annoying!😡

I’ve fitted a couple of sets also from NJ. Only advice I can offer is make sure the inside of swingarm tube is spotless. I drove mine in with a rubber mallet.

Don’t blame you for seeking elsewhere. I received my goods the day. Quite a neat box of tricks. Whether it’s any good or not I don’t know. I won’t be needing it for a period of time but I can add to it bit by bit. It was on offer!
