Hello,
I am looking for a front wheel and a girder fork for a lightweight motorcycle from 1925. It is an austrian motorcycle brand, but almost all parts are british.
The front wheel should fit for 26x2 beaded edge tyre (or maybe 26x2,25), so the circumference of the beaded edge rim should be aprox. 172 cm (inner section) and the inner width of the rim aprox 3,5cm. Furthermore the front wheel should have a drum brake and 40 spokes.
The girder fork which I am also looking for, is maybe a brampton fork, but I am not sure.
Please take a look on the photo, I think the experts here can identifier my wanted parts.
If anybody have such a front wheel or grider fork, or only parts of it and would sell it, would make make very happy.
Many thanks in advance
kind regards
Ralf (and sorry for my bad english)

British Bikes / Villiers 172cc sport

Dear Forum members,
at first I have to introduce myself:
My name is Ralf and I am from Austria.
Many thank`s to the admins for adding me to this forum!
Now to my question:
I have 2 Villiers 172cc sports engines. The crankcase from one of these 2 engines is stamped with the letter "T", which as I found out means that this is the sports engine for petroil lubrication. But on this "T"-crankcase are also the lubrication holes for the main bearings. The cylinder also has the oil connection port between the two exhaust ports.
Are the lubrication holes in the crankcase and the oil connection port on the cylinder correct for the "T"-type sports engine?
If yes, what are the differences to the "TL"-type sports engine with AutoLube-system?
Where is on the"TL"-type sports engine the connection port for the crankcase-pressure tube located, which is necessary for the Autolube-system?
Sorry for my midding english, I hope my text is understandable.

Many thank`s in Advance!
kind Regards

Ralf
