Hello beamers can anyone tell me where i can buy a replacement de compression leaver, this is the leaver on the engine, not the handlebars, and also the
spring my bike is the 350cc model 8 series 2 1937 cheers terry
On the same subject, am looking for clear pictures of the decompressor set up for a friends 1935 model 9. Even better if anyone has any drawings/dimensions, but any good pics of an original cam and actuating arm assembly would suffice.
Tim
I am assuming you have the cam arrangement with the peg. Sorry no dimensions as don't have them anymore but hopefully pictures will help

There is a photo of the valve lifter components on page 21 of Beaming No 7 Sept 2011, Fig 1 applies.
if you haven't got a copy let me know on tony@tonypashley.co.uk and I'll send you a scan.
You can see it on the main MSC&R site here:
