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. …
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…
GTP Drive-side completion
Let’s get this drive-side finished! YES! With just a small job to do on the gearbox, to stop the mainshaft falling out! Basically, the lid has to be put on the gearbox: so to start with, first gear is stuck, lubricated, on the end of the shaft: The gasket face is then cleaned up with…
GTP Primary Chain Case re-assembly
Now the real fun starts! Let’s put this jigsaw back together! Please be patient, there are a lot of hi-res pictures to load on this one!! There are a couple of points to watch that, being a Velocette, it has in common with most of the other models (regarding the clutch at any rate) and…
GTP full gearbox strip-down
Well, blow me down. Four days and nights I have been beating myself up about not stripping the ‘box while it was out of the frame and at four this morning, it finally got me. So I decided that, between everything else going on here (including storms, blocked drains, trees falling all over the place…
GTP Gearbox cure…
So now I have the bike sans gearbox and drive-components on my improvised stand. And what a beauty it is, too. I must admit to having fallen in love with it, such grace and elegance, so well thought out and the solutions to save weight at NO expense to rigidity of the whole plot, simply…
GTP and pre-War MOV single-plate clutch
It is certainly not every day that anyone gets the chance to have a look at and dismantle a Velocette single-plate clutch, as fitted to the pre-war MOVs and the GTP series of bikes, so I thought that while I’m at it, I could take a few pictures and document what it looks like and…
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…
Lucas Altette? (+ some Chrome)
Honk if you’re horny! Old car-bumper stickers are the hit! (Again?) Remember the photos of the Altette I bought a while back? Just to jog your memory, that’s it in the picture above. This is what it looks like now!! Quite a transformation, considering. I disassembled it as far as I could go (the main…
Smith’s Face-Job
Tired original speedo face? Do something about it! This is just a quickie… I received an extremely original 1938 Smiths Chronometric Speedometer from Pud, that had been completely mechanically serviced and reconditioned in 1999 and never used since then. The tripo- and odometer wheels had not been touched cosmetically, as was the case with the…
KA169/2 Pillion footrest rubbers
Proper rigid pillion footrests
What they look like is what you get: Correct footrest rubbers for the rigid Velocette MAC, MOV, MSS and KSS. They fit original parts using the original screws AND the patterns, too
Please let me know by email if you would like some/one of these or look for them on eBay!
