spares hoard
« on: December 05, 2020, 04:33:26 PM »
Just picked up a load of spares for 500/550 as a job lot, including an engine plus extra head etc and lots of other chassis and brake parts. I will be selling some of these to re-coup the cost so if anyone needs anything specific just ask.

found some treasures in the pile, an undamaged fuse box cover which will go on my F2, and also a pair of headlamp brackets for F2 and K3 which seem in good condition except for a slight rust patch which may be a hole. Also a rear brake drum for the earlier 500/550 with the flat brake plate and the liner seems to be not cracked. Just having a look at the complete engine, it does seem to be seized up so investigating.

yes there is but has some damage at the end, mudguard is a k3 one i think with three holes. I have two lamp brackets, one k3 type which has a bit missing where the number plate mounts, the other is a chrome US type and in good condition

Hi oddjob, sorry to hear of your health issues, i will have a close look at the journals and the fork ears, although another member has first dibs.

Bad news ken, the journals are fine but on close inspection there is a chunk broken off at the edge, not sure if it could be welded. I have put a pic of the damage.
