Velocette KA169/2 Rear Footrest Rubbers for rigid frames

KA169/2 John Bull pillion footrest rubbers for rigid Velocette models.    I am proud to offer here the only KA169/2 footrest rubbers for the rigid Velocette range, exactly the same as the original part with the step for the 1936- onwards bikes: Will, of course, fit all the rigid MOV, MAC, MSS and KSS as well as earlier models, too. …


Footrest/Kickstart Rubber B60/2

Ready to go! This part is ready to have the tooling made, if there is enough interest! As a first move forward in the Ukraine setup might be this prewar kick-start/gear-change rubber B60/2, which for at least twenty years has been sold under this part-number with a closed end… which is completely wrong! And yes,…


Rigid Velocette Top Yokes for WEBB forks

Somebody please help. I am trying to get the one or other thing produced for rigid Velocette’s and would prefer, if possible, to be able to initiate or keep (once established) the production process here in the UK, close to the market centre and close to central distribution-channels. I am not able to manufacture anything…


Lycett type saddles etc.

The ‘right’ saddle. Let’s face it, if we actually use our machines, one of the things that gets a fair amount of wear and tear, is the saddle. Whichever type we have fitted, at some stage it will need re-covering. There are new covers available which are of a reasonable shape and size, but somehow…


Saved rigid MSS from Australia

   The the old year is gone … and can be done and dusted. A strange mix for me, towards the end more and more challenging. The time of year when I should be doing my own bike and helping others do theirs, ‘God willing’, has left me with a logistically difficult re-location which has…


Miller Regulator Cover and More!

Old lid with new internals (no bracket yet!) How time flies!! I am still stuck up here at my parent’s place, camping on an air-mattress that decided to deflate twice last night (No, not the subject of another blog, sorry!) and am sitting right now at what has, for the last eight months, been my…


Miller ‘Star’ Testimonials

My humble thanks! To start on a really positive note, I have had some fantastic feedback about the Star, my proudly first ‘product’! I humbly accept their praise and encouragement, as a good deal of work (and money) gets sunk into such projects. This sort of praise makes it all worthwhile, when you know that…


The Waiting Game

  Don’t we all love it? At the moment there seems to be a slight hiccup with the post, due to Easter, this time… Nevertheless, I can expect delivery sometime within a week, and then I can get on with the packing! The artwork is all finished for the packing slip, just have to print…


First Production Looming

Well, it should have sort of sifted through by now… … I’m not only restoring a Velocette blah,blah, blah, but I’m also setting myself up as a sort of modern-day Don Qixote, Jousting with windmills etc. in my efforts to redress the balance and make parts that FIT, DO THE JOB they were intended for…


Real Glass Miller Rear Lens?

It finally looks as if I actually might have (after 5 months of research) found someone capable and willing to make borosilicate glass mouldings for me for the Miller 36E rear light in less than quantities upwards of 10,000 a Month! The main question is, who will buy them? All the ‘originality’ fetishists will steer…
