I have a Norton RoadHolder front end but I am missing the springs and one of the bushes and internal rods, missing the lower outer covers to

Picked up this plunger frame Arial wheel that has been modified to fit my Norton frame, this was a common thing to do back in the day for side car racing as the Arial wheel has a much stronger hub, and being a plunger the axel must be 4 times as thick as a normal swing arm axel. Also got some Triumph clutch parts as I have adapted a 4 spring Triumph clutch to my BSA.

They are a bit too modern for my bike, pretty much sorted for wheels now, but thank you.

That’s a very nice looking anvil, it’s a forged Peater Wright from the 19th century, the top face is high carbon steel forge welded to the body. -
I got a 2nd cheap OBD scan tool and it’s the same as the 1st, won’t connect, just says failed to connect

Someone has offered to buy me a Jawa 890 engine in exchange for me working on other Norton’s to pay for it, this could be a good thing but will cost me as I will have to take time away from my work.

First things first, I am going to need some parts, need an engine of some kind, I wouldn’t mine a JAP stationary engine or something, I will sort the axels and bearings and forks and slap some kind of petrol tank on it.

Impco function controller PAT# IFC103 where would one find a replacement?

Found something I made a long time ago when I planned to have 2 gauges in the middle of the dash, welded a washer in one side for the ignition, I will move the oil pressure gauge up next to the ignition and install the 2nd temperature gauge down below. It would actually look cool if I set all the gauges in the dash but I cannot be bothered,

Got a new ignition, I think I will grind out the rivets that hold the old ignition and mag switch in and mount it it’s place? I might move the amp gauge upto where the ford one is but I need to open the hole up, I am going to fit two temp gauges in the bezel below, one for each cylinder head as they are basically two separate cooling systems, Ford used 2 senders and one gauge somehow.

For some reason I was avoiding buying new wheel nuts for the front as I thought they would be expensive but it was $12 for a set of 10, and now I can ditch the 3 different shapes and sizes of nuts I had on before, got the new tires put on, finding tubes was a little tricky and I had to drive a lot to get them, tire shops look at me funny when I want cross ply tires fitted.
