If he was a senior director in 1949 he'd be getting on a bit (as of a few days ago}.

Carl, I use a bloke near Bordon; if that's within range. I'll ring him in the morning to see how he's fixed and send you a PM.

We got hold of a cyclemotor in the 60s (borrowed?) and attached it to a bicycle. It had friction drive to the rear wheel and clamped to the rear downtubes. We ran it around for a bit, which was probably illegal. but who cared in those days.
We also reckoned we held the record for the most people on a 98cc Sun motorbike. Six in the New Forest woods. It was OK until, after a short distance, we came a cropper and the bloke on the tank got his hand crushed by the handlebar. Bloody good fun and all drug and alcohol free.

As memory comes back I think T21 or T90 forks were used. I think all C series forks (350/500) are similar, but changed over the years. That may broaden your search. Good luck.

They did make a scrambler version of the Cub. Check the spec.

If you were to concentrate on the bikes instead of spending so much time on line you might get somewhere.

I've never heard of autolube on a Villiers engine, but I'm not into pre war engines.

Over two years on the same problem and you bat back every suggestion. I stand by my remarks. Your entertainment would come to an abrupt halt if you sorted the problem.
