At that time a couple of my competitors had a conversation and agreed that we wouldn’t last and I’d soon get fed up with it. Well I have to admit it has been a hard learning experience but for the most part it has been very enjoyable and we hope to keep going for many more years. I wrote the first Walridge catalogue in 1988, cutting and pasting illustrations with scissors and glue and photocopying the finished product for customers who were mostly local callers at the counter. We are now, thank goodness, more sophisticated and the vast majority of our 15,000 plus customers live many miles away and contact us by email and phone. We still see a few customers at the shop by appointment and orders placed in advance can still be picked up 9 – 5 Monday to Friday. I know, for anyone who knows me, this sounds like a broken record but the biggest challenge we face is dealing with the daily deluge of several hundred enquiries. One of my UK competitors calls it, “E-mail hell”, he answers what he can in the day and deletes the rest. Meeting customers’ needs and expectations is an ongoing work in process and we are constantly looking for ways to improve service. This catalogue concentrates primarily on sets and items not commonly found in the regular parts books. It only lists the 4,000 or so most commonly ordered British parts. We actually list and supply over 30,000 part numbers and it is essential that anyone working on a British bike first obtains a copy of the original illustrated factory parts book for their machine. We can supply most parts books. The common ones are listed in the following pages but please contact us if you don’t see what you are looking for. We have recently introduced a shopping cart facility, which you can access using the “PLACE ORDER” facility on our Website. You can also download from the Website, under “INVENTORY LISTING”, an Excel spread sheet showing part numbers, descriptions, stock and prices. We will also be pleased to process orders and quote requests by email or telephone. Please provide part numbers and descriptions with any requests in order to avoid errors Thank you for your interest in Walridge Motors Limited, Mike Partridge Walridge Motors Limited: Ph: 519-227-4923; Fax: 519-227-4720; Email: [email protected]; Website www.walridge.com 4 Index to Chapters Chapter 1 Books & Literature (6-24) Chapter 2 Carburetors & Fuel System Components (25-46) Chapter 3 Oil Filters & Related Components (47-48) Chapter 4 Engine Parts (48-63) Chapter 5 Gaskets - Sets & Individual Items (64-69) Chapter 6 Exhaust Pipes & Mufflers (69-74) Chapter 7 Oil Seals, O Rings, Tab Washers and Bearings (74-82) Chapter 8 Clutch Plates & Primary Chaincase Components (82-86) Chapter 9 Transmission Parts (86-88) Chapter 10 Sprockets (88-89) Chapter 11 Speedometers & Tachometers (89-91) Chapter 12 Frame Parts (91-101) Chapter 13 Fenders (101-103) Chapter 14 Seats (103-107) Chapter 15 Chains (107-109) Chapter 16 Rubbers (109-111) Chapter 17 Handlebars, Forks & Related Parts(111-122) Chapter 18 Tires (123-126) Chapter 19 Wheel Rims, Spokes & Brakes(127-140) Chapter 20 Electrics (141-165) Chapter 21 Control Cables (166-177) Chapter 22 Chemicals & Lubricants(177-178) Chapter 23 Tools (178-186) Chapter 24 Sundry Nuts, Bolts & Washers (187-190) Chapter 25 Decals (190-194) Chapter 26 Goggles, Patches, Key Fobs & Pins (194-196) For information regarding shipping & recieving, terms of business and warranty claims please see our homepage www.walridge.com Walridge Motors Limited: Ph: 519-227-4923; Fax: 519-227-4720; Email: [email protected]; Website www.walridge.com 5 Help and Advice We can supply a comprehensive range of literature (Parts Books, Workshop Manuals, Owners Handbooks etc) and the common ones we stock are listed below. Through our association with THE BRUCE MAIN-SMITH COMPANY we also receive weekly shipments of literature for British bikes 1900 – 1984 and you can download an Excel copy of their Catalogue from our home page. We are frequently asked for help and advice from customers who are experiencing problems with their machines. This is very time consuming and it is usually impossible to give advice without having access to the machine. If customers are not able to find an experienced British bike mechanic locally we strongly recommend they join the relevant Owners’ club and contact a fellow member who is familiar with their particular model and can provide advice. The contacts for some on the clubs are listed below. Contacts for the other clubs are easy to find on the internet. Please note information relating to Terms of Business, Shipping, Returns, Warranties and our Privacy Notice are set out on our website www.walridge.com. Sales to customers in the USA are charged in American dollars, converted at the current exchange rate in order to avoid customers having to pay bank and credit card exchange conversion fees.

BSA OWNERS’ CLUB: Canada – contact [email protected] UK Parent Club – [email protected] NORTON OWNERS’ CLUB: Canada & USA – www.inoanorton.com Ontario Section – contact Gary Collins, 5514 King Street, RR2, Wellesley, Ontario, N0B2T0, Canada.

The most common reasons why customers receive wrong parts or parts which don’t fit are either because they don’t have the bike they think they have or the previous owners have fitted incorrect parts. Classic bikes were generally titled the year they were sold, not the year in which they were made. For example if you have a 1968 T120 Triumph which was titled as a 1969, virtually none of the fasteners in the 1969 T120 parts book will fit it. Bear in mind also that the vehicle model years (similar to today) ran from August to July, not January to December. A bike manufactured in November 1971 will be a 1972 model so don’t try to order parts from a 1971 parts book. We are North American representatives for the BRUCE MAIN-SMITH from which we can supply copies of a vast range of Parts Books, Workshop Manuals, Handbooks and Annual Sales Brochures. You can download their catalogue from our home page. The tables below set out the literature we carry for the most common bikes. If you need something not listed here, please contact us with your engine and frame numbers and we will be pleased to help. HAYNES Manuals and other interesting literature follow, together with DVD’s which contain vast amounts of information. AJS Engine and frame numbers did not match so you are best to join the owners’ club as they have a dating service to verify the originality of your bike. Before 1960 (as with Matchless) the first two numbers of the engine number were the year of the bike followed by numbers and letters to identify the model. For example a bike with the engine number starting 52/18S would be a 1952 500cc single model 18 with rear suspension (S). From 1964 most AJS models had matching numbers but these bikes are very rare in North America (apart from the later 2 stroke motocross bikes) where they were not marketed. Please note that AJS and Matchless handbooks are almost complete workshop manuals in themselves, issued in the days before “Motorcycle Service” when it was expected that owners would their own servicing!

    We Always Aim to Supply Transfers of the Highest Quality in Mint Condition

    INTRODUCTION We hope you enjoy reading through our latest catalogue. We aim to provide restorers and historic vehicle enthusiasts with transfers and graphics to the highest attainable standard. Our background is mainly motor cycle orientated but over the years we have found that many motor cycle transfers were used on bicycles, and vice versa. If you are unable to find what you need always ask - we may be about to have the item printed. The majority of our stocks are the popular waterslide transfers but we also supply vinyl graphics where originally they were in that format. Low volume sellers are also supplied as vinyl graphics where a waterslide print run would be totally uneconomic. We use only best quality cast 10 year vinyl with a 'thinness' of 50 microns (2 thou inch). We are also able to offer white registration letters and numbers in four sizes, 1¾ inch and 2½ inch deep for motor cycles and 3 inch and 3½ inch for three wheelers and motor cars. See last page for further details. By far the majority of our artwork is produced by hand-drawing (as were the originals) and we resist the temptation to produce transfers using standard computer fonts, thus keeping the period look of the originals. We have tried to be as accurate as we can with the relevant location and year information in our listings, but your detailed knowledge of a particular model may well be greater than ours.

  • 250 Triumph/BSA Rocker Arm Mods As a Professional Triumph

    250 Triumph/BSA Rocker Arm Mods As a Professional Triumph

    250 Triumph/BSA Rocker Arm Mods As a professional Triumph mechanic during the early 1970’s, I remember the 250cc singles very well. These machines were built by BSA, with some being re-branded to Triumph. Models included the BSA B25 and Triumph T25. They were easy to work on and fun to ride because the engine would rev up effortlessly. However, they were highly susceptible to valve flotation and subsequent valve train damage. And since these engines performed so well at high RPM, loss of compression from valve damage was something we saw all the time. Damage Repair To repair this problem, the first step is to remove the cylinder head and both RH engine covers to inspect the entire valve train. The cam followers (tappets) should slide freely in the engine case over their full length without binding, and fall out from the fully-lifted position under their own weight. A bent cam follower will bind at its extreme lift point. Bent tappets must be replaced. The exhaust valve can easily be checked for leaking by holding the exhaust port straight up and watching the combustion chamber while pouring in thin solvents. A bent valve will let solvent gush by. A valve in good condition should hold solvent for at least 3 seconds. Photo 1. Stock rocker arms and the compression release lug Future Prevention After replacing valves and lifters you have repaired the damage, but not the cause. The real culprit is that the valve train weighs too much to sustain high RPM. You could install heavier valve springs, but that would simply wear out the cam and cam followers.

    Brought to you by the Dorset section VMCC Hello and welcome to issue six of LDN. Thank you for the nice comments, we’re glad it’s keeping you mildly diverted in these difficult times. Greetings also to the new subscribers, please feel free to tell your friends about us and perhaps come and join us on one of our events once all this is over. And lastly, a huge thank you to everybody that’s taking the time to send in articles and materials for this, and future editions of LDN; without you none of this would be possible. Grab a coffee, sit back and enjoy. Please stay safe and well Paul Miles First up, Betsy. I saw this photograph hanging at her home about two years ago. It’s a fantastic moment in time and unlikely ever to be repeated. Can you imagine English Heritage letting nasty, oily motorcyclists, let alone their nastier, oilier bikes(!) anywhere near Stonehenge now? I mean, we wouldn’t want to damage the stones that have survived 4000 years with our BSAs… Stonehenge Section visits..............Stonehenge. By Betsy Barber. In the late 80's when I was Madame Chairman of the Stonehenge Section the committee decided it would be a good idea for local publicity to have a photo of the Section taken at the stones. The photo could be circulated to the local press and, as it happened, I had a good contact at the Salisbury Journal in the form of Roger Elliott their staff photographer. We, myself and the late Commander Francis Hay RN a committee member, approached the authorities to gain permission to assemble a group of members and their bikes behind the barriers but in front of the stones.
