Yes - OK - it's nice work; - but criminal sacrilage to a classic motor - Bennett Longman (of Iron Horse Motors) does a 12V 300W conversion which is reasonably priced, easy to fit & a quick glance it is indistinguishable from the original Lucas 6V 70W rubbish... Ben's upgrade requires NO machining or destruction of original parts.
Hay great video keep up the good work. we just made a video about our 1st Motorcycles show go check it out and tell me what you think?
It would have been good to see oil coming from the other end of the cable
Very good work - well done to all

colin I have the arrow with no frame number I have a eng number were is there any other place on the bike the frame may be,
Great video, what is the name of the tyres you have there? Thanks
You can't accurately determine TDC with a moving rod like that, as there's a 'null' area either side of TDC, where there's effectively no movement of the rod. You need a fixed Stop, made from an old Spark Plug, that stops the Piston a few mm before TDC. Wind the Engine slowly until the Piston hits the stop, and mark the Rotor in that position. Wind the Engine round the other way until it stops again, mark that point. Mid-way between the two marks is the EXACT TDC point.
You still could use this tool, all you'd have to do is do that similar method you mentioned, only with this tool you can rotate the engine until the moving rod hits its peak, mark that point. Then keep rotating the engine until the moving rod starts to go back down, mark that point. In between those two points is exactly TDC as well, getting rid of that 'null' area.
Video is incomplete, stops at 2:15 having barely touched the subject. Any chance of the full video being posted? Cheers, Charles
Hi Charles, not sure what has happened. I will do it again for and upload it. Cheers for the info.
Draganfly Motorcycles did this ever get uploaded in full? Doing this very job on my C25 this week!
BSA Part No 82-9771 mudguard support bracket I think
Could we have an update on this? Great build
With the spark plug positioned vertically above the piston, as on this Leader engine, it is straightforward to use the tool. Unfortunately most sparkplugs are positioned at an angle to the piston, so it would be nice if the video described how to use it with this configuration.
Thats how you keep your tea hot as well !!!

Hi Frank, afraid not. Colin's arrow is a C Reg in afraid. Perhaps contact the owners club.
I've been trying to track down my old Ariel Golden Arrow that I owned in the 70's. It was one of the last sold or so I was told. I couldn't see the registration on yours but was just wondering if it was RMX 868F by any faintest chance?
Sophisticated suspension that is, but i heared they overheat on the rear Cylinders ? Just having a Laugh don't worry. Regards Florian
