I've got 95% of one in bits in the shed. My first bike was an A7.

Sadly, no :-(

Mine was a Velocette Thruxton. Wish I still had it.
Re the A95, were the last ones "trouble free" or did they still
have probs. I know some BSA twins had oil pump probs.

I had one 30 odd years ago (and some years have been odder than others).
I seem to remember most "in the know" owners fitted a roller bearing kit
to the mains. I think the issue was more to do with slop in the plain
bearings rather than just an oilpump fault. Paul.

 

wasnt that the pre unit A7 and A10 ?
My old A10 had a bronze bush in the timing side but I thought
the unit twins had ball and rollers.

Yeah, are you blind or something?

Dear me, we dont use the "B" word anymore now do we ?
Itz "visually impaired" isnt it ?
The "B" word is not used in polite society.
