Hello. Im new here. I am danish, also live there. I dont have a lot of experiense with forums. so please excuse or tel me if i do ennything wrong {spelling ect}. I have pict up an old excelsior. At first i didnt know what it was. After some searching {alot rather} on the net i identyfied it by the fueltank {room for ampmeter and lightingswitsh}. The frame no is E10/90 witch i think tells its a 1935 model 10 serial no 90. Can ennyone tel me what it would have looked like as i am unable to find info on this model eccept for one drawing where it is showen with a two port jap engine. The fueltank on my bike is chromed with pretty lage knee pads {pads missing}. Brake drums are 7" . The front fork is a Webb populer model. The bike came wih a 600 cc 1935 sidevalve jap motor no.UCZ/R 44568/SR. Did excelsior list a sidevalve in 1935?. The gear box witch i dout is correct is an albion platform mount, {platform at the rear} Four speed. no hca 856. My aim is to restore the bike. I also own a norton commando mrk 2a. a 1952 royal enfield 350 bullet that i ride. a 1952 vincent rapide not running at the moment { faulty crank}. 1953 ariel vb 600 baskit case. Hope some one knows something about the excelsior. Kind regards poul b
