400 Chain Guard question...
« on: July 08, 2022, 05:19:22 PM »
Attached are a couple of pictures of my chain guard and I'm wondering if the  highlighted 'kink' is meant to be there or not.
I have another one which doesn't have this, however, I'm unsure which one is original.

Thanks, I'll have a look at a few more as it really looks like it is in the pressing but I could be wrong. Matt

I cant recall there being a bend there on my 400/4. I only sold it last year and I can remember back that far 😂😂😂😂

Mine has the pressing in it - it's a re-chromed original.
Same as Deano400 picture.
Not bent over at the end.
