Hi all,

Can anyone tell me whether the crankshaft has normal right hand treading or left hand? As the crankshaft is running backwards I was in doubt.

Regards,
Johan

Hi Richard,
Not sure yet, I have some more research to do yet and when I have all the bits together I’ll know better whether its something I can tackle.
I’m also in Perth.
Do you have a 6/1? Are you a member of the Vintage Motorcycle Club?

Hi Terry, Thanks, I’ll check the engine number and oil filter when I get back to the workshop.
Do you know when the hand change became foot change?, I seem to have both.

Hi Rocky

What is the go? Are you going to restore it yourself? If not would you be willing to sell? I live in Perth W.A. where are you?

Hi Rocky,

Lucky you!

Engine numbers are in the form 1.Vn.xxx where 1.V designates the engine type (6/1), n is the model year so should be 4,5,6- 1934- 36 and xxx is the unique engine number.

One change I know of is that the pressurised oil tank/filter was not fitted to later models- there is a filter in the sump.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Terry

G’Day all,
I’ve just inherited a 6/1 basket case with broken crankcases in Australia. I’m trying to assess whether I can restore it but firstly would like to date it.
Does anyone have engine and frame numbers listed by year model?
What changes occurred during its short model run?
