    Thanks :), sadly with the recent popularity of classic bikes a whole industry of dodgy parts suppliers and restorers has appeared over time :-( i just hope i can still find the odd bargain to restore as its my way of relaxing lol.

    Lol, when you are born left handed and your parents make you change to the right you end up using both, guess it applies to feet as well.

    Amal still use British Standard threads and BSP is British Standard Pipe :) British bikes are very confusing to say the least as you can have a huge mix of thread types on certain years. Even i get confused after 50 odd years
